  Re: Set default website in II7 (virtual directory) Reply Contact You can't set a virtual directory as the root of a site (virtual directories are under a site so it can't be the root of a site), it has to be the physical directory the virtual directory points to.  Set that in site settings, click on the default site to highlight it, choose Basic Settings in the Actions pane (right side) and set the physical directory.   Look for Wrox's new book Professional IIS 7 in your local bookstore, or order now at Amazon.com
