How to remove the HTTP ETag header by IIS 7.5?

etag, header, iis

Solution

I have been able to remove the ETag HTTP header using an outbound rewrite rule.

Problem

We wish to remove the ETag header added automatically by IIS 7.5. None of the online suggestions worked for us, which may be due to a different version of IIS. One of the solutions we have come across repeatedly included creating a new ETag HTTP response header with `""` as value. This approach adds `, ""` after the original ETag instead.
