Windows 8 and Identity Foundation

Just installed Windows 8, VS2012 and wanted to modify and run one of the SDK tools from CRM 2011 SDK. I was not able to reference the Windows identity foundation from the solution.
So a colleague of mine pointed me in the right direction:

Enable the feature for Windows 8 called Windows Identity Foundation  3.5

Here is how you do:
- Go to control Panel/Programs
- Go to Turn windows features on or off
- select and enable the feature Windows Identity Foundation 3.5

Thanks, Casper!

Now - In my case I need to deploy the modified version to a server in order to run it as a scheduled task. in order for the application to work there I had to install Identity Foundation on the server. Get it from Microsoft Download.

Enjoy the day!
