Using IIS Server instead of IIS Express in Visual Studio 2015

How can we configure our already developed ASP.Net website to use IIS Server instead of using IIS Express in VS2015?

IIS Express is the default server in Visual Studio 2015. My website runs fine with ASP.NET web Development server in Visual studio 2012 but when i run it in VS2015 , it does not loads the css and images .

So, i want to run it with IIS Server and not IIS Express in VS2015. Can anyone help me out ?

How do I disable IIS Express in Visual Studio?

Closing IIS Express By default Visual Studio places the IISExpress icon in your system tray at the lower right hand side of your screen, by the clock. You can right click it and choose exit. If you don't see the icon, try clicking the small arrow to view the full list of icons in the system tray.

What is the difference between IIS and IIS Express?

An important difference is the way worker processes are managed. In IIS, the Windows Process Activation Service (WAS) silently activates and deactivates Web applications and the user has no direct control. In IIS Express, there is no WAS and the user has full control of application activation and deactivation.

Project Properties -> Web -> Servers -> Change IIS Express to Local IIS -> Check Apply server settings to all users -> then Project URL to http://localhost/Example (your project)

Then build your project.
