How to enable TFTP and Telnet in Windows 7 programmatically?

IIS looks normal, but site won't load.

Uninstalled without error in the OS, but website still 404ing, reboot and iisreset didn't fix it. "%systemroot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\ VERSION \aspnet_regiis.exe" –i Then iisreset. All good :) Read about it here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/k6h9cz8h(v=vs.80).aspx
