Move Default Website from C to D

Good Afternoon,

I hope everyone is doing good. We're running IIS6 on Win Server 2003 R2.
I'm trying to move my default website and admin site to Drive D. It was
installed on C. When I looked at the properties under default website and
selected a different location, none of the files or folders moved so I
switch it back. I'm not sure the proper way to move the default location
for the admin&default website from C Drive to D Drive. Can someone help
please? Thanks!

Sincerely,
Anthony Smith

I posted a simular question on the post just before yours. I was trying to
move the physical location of the default website from D:/some folder back to
c:/inetpub/wwwroot but was not able to. Will let you know if I get a
response.

Hello,

You need to physically move the files/folders using Windows Explorer.
After you have move the files/folders, you need to tell IIS where the
files/folders are located, which is done on the Home Directory tab in the
properties of the website.
