You will need a linux machine such as Ubuntu 22.04LTS, or to download the Windows equivelant of OpenSSL in order to run the necessary commands to convert and package the files into a `.pfx` file that IIS Server Manager can use.

You need to make sure that all of the certificate files as well as private key are in the same folder (to keep things simple) during the conversion process. **It will prompt you to enter a password for the PFX file, choose anything you want.**

You can rename the files anything you want for organizational purposes. Afterall, they are just plaintext files. For example, you could rename `gd-g2_iis_intermediates.p7b` to `intermediate.bundle` and it would still work without issue in the command. During the import phase in IIS Server Manager, you can check a box to enable Exporting the certificate, effectively reverse-engineering it back into a certificate and private key.
