title: Enabling IIS 8.0 (windows 8 pro) Dynamic Compression
body: <p>Im having problems with compression under IIS 8 (Windows 8 Pro).</p>
  
  <p>It works fine in Windows 7 under IIS 7.5 but in Windows 8 Pro It doesnt work.</p>
  
  <p>After looking very deeply, I have compared the applicationHost config files (Windows 7 and Windows 8) and I found something interesting....</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>In Windows 7 I have inside applicationHost  under globalModules the tag <code>&lt;add name="DynamicCompressionModule" image="%windir%\System32\inetsrv\compdyn.dll" /&gt;</code> and I found the file compdyn.dll inside System32\inetsrv</p></li>
  <li><p>In Windows 8 I dont have that line in my applicationHost file  under globalModules and the compdyn.dll is missing inside System32\inetsrv</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>So actually Im sure that the issue, anyone know why Windows 8 Pro (IIS 8) doesnt come with that dll??</p>
  
  <p>Is there something I have to do?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks a lot and hope someone can help me.</p>
  
  <p><strong>FIXED</strong></p>
  
  <p>Simple Solution: Had to install the Dynamic Content Module for IIS and that's all.</p>
