Question

I installed VS 2017 along with .NET Core SDK on Windows 10. But it did not install ASPNETCoreModule as shown in figure 2 below. I thought

Answer 1

ASP.NET Core Module is installed separately from the SDK

It's not true since the release of 2.1. I'm experiencing the same issue on Windows Server 2016. The module was installed on developer PC after uninstalling old versions / installing 2.1 a few times, but still struggling with the same issue in 2016. %SystemRoot%\system32\inetsrv\aspnetcore.dll is still missing.
