IIS Manager in Windows 11 not showing any site and IIS Admin not in services


I'm running a fresh installation of Windows 11, most IIS features are enabled, and IIS Manager doesn't show any site or the web server. Internet Information Services is not on the services list.

    Malwarebytes prevents IIS from installing. To solve the issue: disable Malwarebytes, disable all IIS features, reboot, ensure Malwarebytes is still disabled, enable IIS features.
