Examples
-------------- EXAMPLE 1: Convert a Virtual Directory to a Web Application --------------
This example creates a physical directory named "Contoso." It then creates a virtual directory in IIS that uses that physical directory. It then converts the virtual directory to a Web application.
IIS:\>md $env:systemdrive\inetpub\Contoso New-WebVirtualDirectory -Site "Default Web Site" -Name ContosoVDir -physicalPath $env:systemdrive\inetpub\Contoso ConvertTo-WebApplication "IIS:\Sites\Default Web Site\ContosoVDir"
