Installing/Adding IIS Windows Authentication feature in Windows 8

While installing the BizTalk Adapter Service I got the error "IIS Windows Authentication feature must be installed". As I am investigating Windows Azure Service Bus from my workstation running Windows 8, I don't have the convenience of the Server Manager to turn in on. Instead you will find it under the Windows Features - search for "Features" under "Settings" (or with 8.1 you will get the aggregated results). Below are screenshots showing the tree under which you can find the feature.

    I ran into the same issue. I have only 4 Items under "Security" with Windows 8.1Seems that Windows 8.1 PRO has to be installed to select this "Windows Authentication" feature.

    @Aurobinda: I do not understand your problem.Are you sure you have Windows 8.1 PRO edition installed?If "localhost" is not working try "127.0.0.1" instead.

    @jeddiThen check what version of Windows you have.It is only part of the PRO version and not of the "normal" version.

    I have Windows 8.1 and I'm trying to install MicroStrategy's software, and appears as if no Windows Authentication in IIS, but even with that forum does not appear that option.

    Although I have windows 8.1 Pro installed it seems I cannot enabling IIS. I get an error message indicating there is not enough memory. Also under Web Management Tools, there is only IIS 6 Management Compatibility and under World Wide Web Services/Security are no further options.

    Even I don't have the Windows authentication option under Security in Windows 8.1 and I'm trying to install Microstrategy. Did anyone find a solution yet?
