How can I install WebMatrix 3 in a standalone PC?

I need to install webmatrix 3 in a pc without internet connection.
I have win7 64bit.
so i downloaded webmatrix x64 exe and all his dependencies and services exe/msi files - include web platform installer.
I installed all and run the webmatrix app but an message box pop up and said that I need to have the latest webPI installed (4.6 in this days..).
But it is a problem because the wpilauncher.exe file (webPI installer file) install version 4.0 for some reaseon, i think it because I dont have internet accsess.
so?
help, thx.
you can download offline installer from Web Platform Installer
Run on your PC with internet connection WebMatrixWeb.exe, click Install
You will see installation plan and download link on the right.
this may help
There's a link to an offline instaler for x86 available at download.microsoft.com/download/c/2/a/c2a485fa-013a-45ef-baba-c568e40f4b50/WebMatrix_x86_en-US.msi. Requires IIS 7.5 Express or IIS 8.0 Express.
I can see you've specifically asked for x64 version, but this might work for someone searching for x86 version.
WebMatrix needs an active internet connection to install since it pulls in some other required services from the Web Platform Installer.
Quote:
"..WebMatrix needs other components installed to function correctly,
and those are all pulled in by Web Platform Installer automatically.
In that sense, the true installer is not really "offline"."

How to Install Windows Phone 8 SDK on Windows 7

I have all my workspace and everything set up on Windows 7 but I also want to develop Windows Phone 8 but as stated on Microsoft website that It can not be installed on Windows 7.
Do anybody knows how to install in on Windows 7. I have found a crack but I don't know how to run this. You can get this from here
Please tell me if anybody knows how to install it. here is a link to WP 8 ISO file
Edit:
There could be several reasons to install WP 8 in Windows 7. Like I have purchased a Wndows 7 recently and I don't want to make shift to Windows 8 right now, because I don't feel comfortable with its UI. Its more for a tablet or touch screen PC.
I have set-up all my workspace and other projects on Windows 7, I don't want to waste my time in setting up on Windows 8, I don't even know that how they gona perform on Windows 8. So there are so many genuine reasons.
You can install it by first extracting all the files from the ISO and then overwriting those files with the files from the ZIP. Then you can run the batch file as administrator to do the installation. Most of the packages install on windows 7, but I haven't tested yet how well they work.
Here is a link from developer.nokia.com wiki pages, which explains how to install Windows Phone 8 SDK on a Virtual Machine with Working Emulator
And another link here
AFAIK, it is not possible to directly install WP8 SDK in Windows 7, because WP8 sdk is VS 2012 supported and also its emulator works on a Hyper-V (which is integrated into the Windows 8).

Microsoft.Web name space missed in XP

am trying to use ServerManager class but I found that "Microsoft.Web.Administration" and "Web.Management.Server" are not found on XP OS.
Any help to download Microsoft.Web.Management dll or any other suggestions ?
am using VS2010 on XP machine.
These namespaces are available for IIS 7 and later. There is no way to implement them on downlevel platforms.
In order to code against IIS 5.1 (Windows XP) or IIS 6 (Windows Server 2003) please see the following:
IIS Programmatic Administration SDK
What helped me to solve the same issue is installing
"Web Services Enhancements (WSE) 2.0 SP3 for Microsoft .NET Redistributable Runtime MSI"

Hopefully this will help someone else ...

Can't get "IIS 6 Metabase and IIS 6 Configuration Compatibility" installed on Windows 7

I'm trying to get Visual Studio setup to be able to use my local IIS server for hosting projects-- it tells me I need to install "IIS 6 Metabase and IIS 6 Configuration Compatibility". So I have tried to do so via Add/Remove Windows Components. The installation process gets to the end and then states that an error has occurred and not all components could be installed (helpful, right?) Then asks me to reboot-- upon reboot, the feature is not installed.
Has anyone experienced this problem under Windows 7 before? I am running the 64-bit Ultimate edition if it matters.
I've also tried completely uninstalling IIS (that worked) then reinstalling with "IIS 6 Metabase and IIS 6 Configuration Compatibility" checked -- same failure at the end of the install.
There is a \Windows\IIS7.log file I can use for debugging but it's fairly large and random.. I don't see anything that screams "fatal error".
I've also had the same problem using Visual Studio 2010 on Vista, but I've got this answer back from Geoffrey, provided his address below...wonder if that would also work for Windows 7.
Im in the process of installing Windows 7 on my laptop and wonder if you are able to fix your error with the answer I received then I will follow the same procedure once I've installed Windows 7 to fix the error
heres the address... follow is thru...it fixed my error. hope it'll help fix your error...

I had a similar problem. Same symptom trying to install it fails and reboot rolls back install.
with Microsoft support the following resolved the issue.
Enabled Administrator Account on Windows 7 machine using following command net user administrator /active:yes
Logged in as administrator account on Windows 7 machine
Installed IS 6 Management Compatibility,IIS 6 Management Console,IIS 6 Management Scripts and Tools and IIS 6 Management Service components.
Even though my account was in the administrators group..that was not enough I had to be logged in as the administrator to resolve this issue.

Debugging Developer Fabric Issues - Service Not Starting Web Components

I am trying to get the Azure SDK up and running on my dev PC and have been having some issues.
I have installed the SDK, tools for VS and am trying to run the samples. Every time I try to run the samples the Development Storage service starts and then the Developer Fabric tries to start. This is where is stops. The Developer Fabric cannot run any websites for whatever reason.
I have followed their checklist for setting up the system and there is not Event messages. I am running under Vista Home Premium with IIS 7 installed.
If you have any suggestions I would love to hear them.
It turns out my problem is a little deeper than simply Azure not working on my computer.
In order to natively debug IIS apps using windows vista (configured under the project settings) you need to have windows authentication enabled for IIS. This feature cannot be installed let alone enabled under Vista Home Premium under the guise of what home user would want such a feature.
For the average VS 2005 user this is okay there is a hotfix but for me and my fancy VS 2008 SP1 there is no solution.
After becoming supremely frustrated with this issue I posted it as the following Microsoft Connect issue.
