I was able to get the solution from somewhere else and here it is:

regsvr32 %windir%\system32\inetsrv\inetmgr.dll

Worked for me too, thanks! Now I wish I understood how it became un-registered, but I doubt I'll ever know. – Ross Patterson Jan 25 '10 at 18:06
This also worked for me. My circumstance was this: 1) VS 2008 installed without IIS. 2) IIS installed. 3) VS 2008 SP1 installed. 4) aspnet_regiis - i command executed. 5) snap-in didn't work. Issuing regsvr32 command fixed it. – Alric Mar 30 '11 at 20:44
needs to be run in Administrator mode – clai Jan 10 '17 at 20:12
