First run this cmdlet before running the one you mentioned:
Import-Module ServerManager
then
Add-WindowsFeature NET-Framework,RSAT-ADDS,Web-Server,Web-Basic-Auth,Web-Windows-Auth,Web-Metabase,Web-Net-Ext,Web-Lgcy-Mgmt-Console,WAS-Process-Model,RSAT-Web-Server,Web-ISAPI-Ext,Web-Digest-Auth,Web-Dyn-Compression,NET-HTTP-Activation,RPC-Over-HTTP-Proxy

Thanks, as I mentioned, I did all steps listed before that so I did run that cmdlet. But I'll try a second time and see if that makes a diff
