I am in the processing of testing weblink 10 on a new server running Windows Server 2019. No matter what I try, Weblink 10 prompts for Windows Credentials. Weblink 8 with Laserfiche 8 works perfectly with out prompting for Windows Credentials. What do I need to change in IIS 10 to not get prompted for Windows Credentials?

One possibility is that the application in IIS is not set to allow anonymous authentication. You can check that in the IIS manager, under Authentication for the application. The other is that when you configured how WebLink connects to LFS, you told it to use Windows authentication. Are you using a different method, like specifying a single account for all users to use?
In the Administration Console does it show the Public Portal?
If not you need to go into Directory server and add the server to the WebLink application. Once the server picks up that change you should be able to access WebLink with your public user.
I am running Laserfiche Server 10 (United). LFDS is not used. In IIS, Anonymous and Windows Authentication are enabled. If I enable ASP_NET Impersonation, It throws an error. I think it is a bug in Weblink 10.2. Weblink 8.0 works perfectly passing thru the users credentials with not prompts for logging in.
Make sure the browser and OS is properly passing the login state automatically and bypassing the default prompt. Create a test site with only Windows Auth enabled that just displayed "This is a test" as an HTML page and see if you can view the page without getting prompted.
