Help Needed Setting up Classic ASP Debugging

According to what I have seen on social media, in order for me to set up my computer for writing and debugging Classic ASP, I need to set up IIS a certain way -- which I did -- and then I have to enable ASP by doing the following:

IIS7 - IIS > ASP > Compilation > Debugging Properties > Enable Server-side Debugging

And I am stuck on this. Please, someone give me an idea of what I need to click on.

Looks like "classic ASP" has not been installed:
Classic ASP Not Installed by Default on IIS 7.0 and above | Microsoft Docs[^]

If it had, it would be the first entry under the "IIS" group.

NB: Unless you are maintaining an existing ancient application, you should avoid using "classic ASP"; use ASP.NET instead.
