About this tag
IIS Express is a lightweight, self-contained version of Internet Information Services (IIS) optimized for developers on Windows. Discussions on WindowsForum.com cover several issues affecting IIS Express, including a Windows 11 cumulative update (KB5066835) that broke localhost connectivity, causing ERR_CONNECTION_RESET and ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR errors in IIS Express and developer tools. Another topic involves TLS 1.3 and mTLS breakage with IIS Express on Windows 11, where a structural limitation in how Windows handles TLS prevents reliable client certificate requests after the initial handshake. Workarounds and rollback guides are shared for these regressions. IIS Express also integrates with tools like Microsoft WebMatrix for web development.

    TLS 1.3 & IIS Express on Windows 11: mTLS Breakage, Workarounds, and Outlook

    Windows developers and administrators who depend on client-certificate (mTLS) workflows will need to keep using workarounds: a structural limitation introduced by TLS 1.3 and the way Windows handles TLS in kernel (http.sys / Schannel) means IIS Express on Windows 11 cannot reliably request a...
