Open the IIS Manager by typing inetmgr in the Windows Start menu search bar and clicking on the IIS Manager option. In the left-hand pane of the IIS Manager right-click on the Sites folder and select Add Website. In the Add Website window enter a name for your website in the Site name field. In the Physical path field browse to the directory where your website's files are located. Enter a host name for your website in the Host name field (optional). If necessary select an IP address and port number for your website in the IP address and Port fields. Click on the OK button to save your website settings.

Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager. Expand the server node and select the Sites folder. Right-click on the site you want to set the path for and select Edit Bindings. In the Site Bindings window select the binding you want to edit and click Edit. In the Edit Site Binding window enter the correct IP address port and host name (if applicable) for the site. Click OK to save the changes. Close the Site Bindings window. Right-click on the site again and select Manage Website > Advanced Settings. In the Advanced Settings window under Physical Path click the ellipsis button. Browse to the location of the website's files and select the folder that contains the website. Click OK to save the changes. Close the Advanced Settings window. Restart the website by right-clicking on it and selecting Stop then Start. Once these steps are completed the website should be set up with the correct path in IIS web server.
