NuGet Server is essentially a self-hosted wrapper of the NuGet.Server package. NuGet Server is distributed with its own IIS Express instance and as such does not require a webserver to be installed on the machine.

It's simple! This one is free and open-source.
In order to increase support for servers that do not have IIS Express installed it must be bundled with the service. The Microsoft license agreement for IIS Express only allows distribution in .msi form.
This issue is caused by a partial installation of Visual Studio ie. Visual Studio Build Tools. To resolve either install Visual Studio completely, Install IIS Express using the installed .msi or install the full IIS suite.
