Where is IIS Express 7.5 wwwroot Directory
asp.net, iis, iis-express
Solution
By first-hand experience and also by this other SO answer, usually IISExpress holds a directory with its own data files at: `C:\Users\<username>\Documents\IISExpress`.
There you can find the default directories for each web site log files (`Logs\` and `TraceLogFiles\`) and especially you can find all web sites configurations in file `config\applicationhost.config`. That one has a `<sites>` section with a `<site>` node for each website created.
For each website, its `<virtualDirectory>` node specifies actual root location in `physicalPath` attribute:
<site name="YourWebSiteName" id="12345">
<application path="/" applicationPool="Clr4IntegratedAppPool">
<virtualDirectory path="/" physicalPath="D:\Physical\path\to\your\website\root"/>
</application>
...
</site>
Problem
Using Windows 7 I have installed the IIS Express 7.5 but I cant find where is the `wwwroot` directory on my system! There is no "`inetpub`" folder on my C drive as well. Can you please let me know where I can put a file like hello.aspx file to be run? Thanks
