Coldfusion 11 on windows 10

Question

I am running ColdFusion 11 on Windows 10. My http://localhost pulls up my windows page but when I added cfm files to wwwroot it won't run anymore and I get this error code.

I am simply using notepad and save my code files as cfm.

Help me

HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found

The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map.

Most likely causes:

It is possible that a handler mapping is missing. By default, the static file handler processes all content.
The feature you are trying to use may not be installed.
The appropriate MIME map is not enabled for the Web site or application. (Warning: Do not create a MIME map for content that users should not download, such as .ASPX pages or .config files.)
If ASP.NET is not installed.

Things you can try:

In system.webServer/handlers:
- Ensure that the expected handler for the current page is mapped.
- Pay extra attention to preconditions (for example, runtimeVersion, pipelineMode, bitness) and compare them to the settings for your application pool.
- Pay extra attention to typographical errors in the expected handler line.
Please verify that the feature you are trying to use is installed.
Verify that the MIME map is enabled or add the MIME map for the Web site using the command-line tool appcmd.exe.
1. To set a MIME type, use the following syntax: %SystemRoot%\windows\system32\inetsrv\appcmd set config /section:staticContent /+[fileExtension='string',mimeType='string']
2. The variable fileExtension string is the file name extension and the variable mimeType string is the file type description.
3. For example, to add a MIME map for a file which has the extension ".xyz": appcmd set config /section:staticContent /+[fileExtension='.xyz',mimeType='text/plain']
Warning: Ensure that this MIME mapping is needed for your Web server before adding it to the list. Configuration files such as .CONFIG or dynamic scripting pages such as .ASP or .ASPX, should not be downloaded directly and should always be processed through a handler. Other files such as database files or those used to store configuration, like .XML or .MDF, are sometimes used to store configuration information. Determine if clients can download these file types before enabling them.
Install ASP.NET.

This ticket is still marked as unanswered since in order to actually utilize the referenced article, which wasn't mentioned anywhere in this thread until I myself mentioned it, you would need to have the Coldfusion update installed somewhere. Which you can't upgrade unless you can access CFIDE, and you can't on windows 10 (more importantly, IIS 10) -- hence this thread.

So I don't think I missed much, let me know where I'm wrong on that. The ordering of dates of postings seems irrelevant when one is coming from a google search attempting to find an answer to an unanswered question, is it not? Surely more information is better than less.
I think the only thing that irks me more than an unanswered thread which certainly could've been answered, is someone (especially of your caliber) trying to bash another for sharing information on said lack of information. What a shame.

For me, the resolution was to install coldfusion using the integrated web server. Upgrade via CFIDE (it installs latest, you need update 7. The latest update apparently doesn't include this super useful update. I had to post-re--update to latest AFTER explicitly installing update #7 followed immediately by running IIS configuration via wsconfig tool), shutdown services to disable built-in server via server conf(optional), then iisreset.
For me, Doing as the article described (copying wsconfig.jar from a working upgraded machine, extracting, reconfiguring) did not resolve the problem, despite following the article exactly (and then some... manual config tried as well)

Curious how a little effort can go so far, even from a small-time cfusion user like myself. Further, how nice it must be to be the next person to happen across this, and have a valid answer present and typed explicitly.
Here's a screenshot for proof in case you had any additional doubts in my aptitude, eyesight, comprehension of dates, or reliability of resolution:

See you on the next unresolved article! Thank you for your super helpful response!

I'm having the same problem. Will report back if I find a resolution. Stating "windows 10 is not supported" doesn't seem like a valid answer, it's just an operating system running Java and IIS, so not sure how that could possibly be correlated in that way.

There is an answer, and we haven't found it yet.
