How it works...

In this recipe, the IIS administrator was installed on framework v3.5. The version 3.5 framework on Windows Server 2016 helps us run built-in .NET v2.0 or v3.5 applications. Framework v3.5 processes applications built in framework v3.5 or v2.0.

We also found out where the sources\sxs folder is, and after installation, we verified that .NET framework v3.5 is available.

We will now create an application pool that will support .NET framework v3.5 .
