I am using Windows 8.1 OS. "Windows Authentication" option is not available in my laptop. I navigated to below path.
Windows Features --> Internet Information Services --> World wide web services --> Security --> in this I am not able to see windows authentication. Please let me know.

You have to enable this by using the Windows Features console.

Hi Krishna,
First of all , please run this command as administrator to check whether the feature is available in your machine : dism /online /get-featureinfo /Featurename:IIS-WindowsAuthentication
If it is listed and then we can use this command to enable the feature :dism /online /enable-feature /Featurename:IIS-WindowsAuthentication

Hi Meipo,
Thank you for the information and reply.
I ran command in my laptop. I got below error.
Image version : 6.3.9600.17031
Error: 0x800f080c

Is this problem with OS version? Please suggest me how can I get windows authentication in my laptop.

Hi Krishna,
What is the OS version ?
Just as Arnav Sharma said ,this feature is supported by Pro and Enterprise .If it is a normal edition ,it is not available for this feature .You may need to upgrade to get this feature .
