Installing and Configuring WINS

As with many services in Windows Server 2012, the installation and configuration process of a WINS server is streamlined through the Add Features Wizard. This wizard automatically installs all necessary services and databases and configures other settings pertinent to a particular service. Although other methods of installation still exist, this method is the preferred approach in Windows Server 2012.
