Web Deploy v. 3.6 vs. 3.5

Microsoft has released Web Deploy v. 3.6 some time ago, and you can download this latest release from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=43717

The earlier release of Web Deploy v. 3.5 can be downloaded from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=39277

However, after installing Web Deploy v. 3.6, I noticed a major discrepancy in the integration with IIS!

When I install Web Deploy v. 3.5, I get the following User Interface in IIS:


However, after installing Web Deploy v. 3.6, these options to "Import Server or Site Package" or "Export Server Package" are not available!


In addition, the options for "Export Application" or "Import Application" are also not available!

Instead, when I install Web Deploy v. 3.6, the only option available in IIS is "Install Application from Gallery"!!



Needless to say, I am sticking with Web Deploy v. 3.5 for the foreseeable future until this issue is resolved!!
