How do you install a module in IIS

Hello!

Sorry if this is such and elementary question. I've never really tinkered around with IIS before so I decided to get a VM going and put IIS on it.

Now I figured out how to get directory browsing to function but it's horrid! Everything is sorted alphabetical and the folders are all intermingled with the files. So after some googling I found a module on github that may look like a solution to this simple issue.

This is the URL to it IIS-Directory-Browsing

Was hoping to find something on youtube on how to install these modules but nothing. I'm sure its there I'm just not using the tech words for doing so.

So, if someone could be as so kind to either show me how to do it or point me in the direction that will show me I'd greatly appreciate it!

Thank you in advance!

    1. Compile the C# project https://github.com/mmsaffari/IIS-Directory-Browsing/tree/master/BetterDirectoryListing
    2. Put the compiled assembly to .NET Framework 4.0 GAC.
    3. Modify web.config of your web application like the sample does, https://github.com/mmsaffari/IIS-Directory-Browsing/blob/master/Example%20Web%20Application/Web.config
