For Windows IT people: How do I change the Windows Server (IIS) root directory?

I have IIS setup but am currently working off a virtual directory directed at http://localhost/directory



I want to have windows recognize this folder as the root. (http://localhost). How do I change this?

i need more info. i didnt get you exatctly

if you mean the Defulte website in IIS so it is http://localhost

you may want to change its directory, right click on the website ---%26gt;home directory tab and change it.

you can change every websites directory with this method.

i hope it helps!

I believe you want to make a new website not a new virtual directory. As far as i know virtual directories are typically subordinate to the website they are created under so it will require a header to access (thus not the root).
