How to I enable Failed Request Tracing in IIS 10.0 on my Windows 10 dev pc?

I can find instructions for IIS7 and IIS8.5 (see http://www.iis.net/learn/troubleshoot/using-failed-request-tracing/troubleshooting-failed-requests-using-tracing-in-iis-85) but doesn't seem to be available in IIS10.

According to above instructions there should be a link to "Failed Request Tracing" under "Configure" in the Actions pane - but see in screen shot it is clearly not there: screen shot of IIS Actions pane

The instructions should work exactly the same since the UI has not changed. Make sure that you install Failed Request Tracing, for that run OptionalFeatures.exe and make sure that Tracing is enabled in the Internet Information Services->World Wide Web Services->Health and Diagnostics.
