If you have IIS Express  with Visual Studio       To enable the SSL within IIS Express  you have to just set    SSL   Enabled   true    in the project properties window    See the steps and pictures at this code project   IIS Express will generate a certificate for you  you ll be prompted for it  etc    Note that depending on configuration the site may still automatically start with the URL rather than the SSL URL  You can see the SSL URL - note the port number and replace it in your browser address bar  you should be able to get in and test   From there you can right click on your project  click property pages  then start options and assign the start URL - put the new https with the new port  usually 44301 - notice the similarity to port 443  and your project will start correctly from then on
