You can also try using the C# code:

using (ServerManager serverManager = new ServerManager())
  {
     Configuration config = serverManager.GetApplicationHostConfiguration();

     ConfigurationSection fastCgiSection = config.GetSection("system.webServer/fastCgi");
     ConfigurationElementCollection fastCgiCollection = fastCgiSection.GetCollection();
     ConfigurationElement applicationElement = fastCgiCollection.CreateElement("application");
     applicationElement["fullPath"] = @"C:\PHP\php-cgi.exe";
     serverManager.CommitChanges();
  }
