In this section we will provide some details about Http Commander hosted on ownwebdrive.com.
If you decided to use "hosted by us" version of Http Commander, you will receive access to already installed and pre-configured version of Http Commander on a virtual server.

Where is it located?

- C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\HTCOMNET - Http Commander application installed to this folder. Root folder for "Default Web Site" is point to this folder, is a point to this folder, therefore when you open https://yourcompany.ownwebdrive in browser (without /htcomnet), you will see the application loaded.
- C:\HttpCommanderData - HTTP Commander stores the configuration data (user accounts, folders config, error log, public links) in this folder.
