Open windows explorer.
Navigate to InetPub.
Select InetPub.
Right click and choose Delete.

Hi,

If you are not able to delete Inetpub folder - Try renaming that folder if it still shows error then you will need to reboot the computer in Safe mode and rename C:\inetpub and c:\windows\system32\inetsrv folder.

Once you successfully do that then reboot the box in normal mode and install IIS again.

HTH.
