Recommended workflow:

1. Enable IIS per steps below
2. Install EDGE which should have the Industrial Graphics selection enabled.

You can always add IG support later.

Industrial Graphic support in EDGE requires Internet Information Services (IIS) to be installed and configured properly. The configuration can be found in the help file as seen here:

The configuration can be automated using the Powershell scripting below. If you have already installed EDGE then just execute the "Install IIS" section.

Be sure to close your EDGE application first.

Run Powershell ISE "As Administrator" and paste your commands from below. This will take perhaps 5 minutes.
