Question

I’m taking over IIS maintenance for someone who just left and for some reason they copied the config files to a different drive and pointed IIS to look at them instead of the default C:\WINDOWS\System32\inetsrv\config.

QUESTION: How do I change it back to the default path? I assume I’ll have to copy the current config files to the default directory first to maintain the configuration…

Thank you!

Answer 1

1. Click on the server in IIS Manager.
2. Scroll down to the “Management” section.
3. Double-click “Shared Configuration”
4. Turn this off to resort to local configuration settings.
