Hi Joelabrame,

This issue occurs because of port conflict that exists on your computer. You can resolve this by changing the port bindings for the Web site in IIS Manager to a port other than port 80. Also stop all the application that is using port 80, and then start the Web site from IIS Manager is using port 80.

You can also use third-party tools like TCP View or FPort to identify the other application that is using port 80.

I think that you are trying to use IIS to start a website and you receive the following error message:

Unexpected error 0x8ffe2740 occurred

Set the port as 80 and make sure how many websites you are running at the same time and what port number they all are using so you need to configure it before you can see your website.
