After installing VS 2010 SP1 applying option 1 + 2 may be required to get windows authentication working. In addition, you may need to set anonymous authentication to false in IIS Express applicationhost.config:
<authentication>
<anonymousAuthentication enabled="false" userName="" />
for VS2015, the IIS Express applicationhost config file may be located here:
$(solutionDir).vsconfigapplicationhost.config
and the <UseGlobalApplicationHostFile>
option in the project file selects the default or solution-specific config file.
