What could be the reason for the disappearance of the ApplicationHost.config file in IIS?

When I try to perform tasks like restarting or stopping sites in IIS Manager, or editing SSL bindings, or changing settings, a file write error occurs and the operation fails.
The file is not visible in the system32/inetsrv/config/ directory.
It's present in the backup history, but recovery fails.
Simple copy and paste also fails.
Is there any solution to this problem?"

From your description, it seems that the files under the system32/inetsrv/config/ directory of this machine have been mismanipulated by someone else.
It is recommended that you consult with someone who has recently performed a backup operation, and if the restore fails, it is recommended to contact your administrator to try again.
If there are important sites in the current IIS that are running normally, it is recommended to contact the IT department for assistance and backup-related work. If you don't have important information, you can also try to reinstall IIS, depending on your actual situation.
Best Regards
Jason
