Where does IIS Express get its default applicationhost.config from?


I added a couple of MIME types to the applicationhost.config files in C:\Program Files\IIS Express\AppServer and C:\Users\<me>\Documents\IISExpress\config\. But every time I launch IIS Express, it creates a new file in /Temp/IISExpress/ that doesn't have those MIME types.

Where is it getting that new file from?

FYI: I'm launching IIS Express via this VSCode plugin


Solution

  • Found it. There's another config file in C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS Express\AppServer
