Question

How to change the location for virtual hosts in Plesk for Windows Server?

Answer

1. Connect to a Plesk server via RDP.

2. Start Plesk Reconfigurator at Windows Start > All Programs > Plesk.

3. In Plesk Reconfigurator, select Change Virtual Hosts location.

   

4. Specify a new location for virtual hosts and click Next. All existing website data will be transferred to the new location as well.

   Note: During this operation websites will be stopped.

   Note: Network drive as virtual hosts location (e.g. NTFS hosted on AWS FSx) is not supported by Plesk yet. Vote for this feature on Plesk UserVoice.

   Note: The new location folder must be empty.
