Well, start off by checking if it is installed.

Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features > Windows Process Activation Service

In case it helps anyone else, I already had these enabled but was still getting the error. I just disabled IIS features, restarted my pc, enabled them again, then restarted again and it solved my issue.
