    Hello Nick B,

    Yes you can. Set ConnectPort and ListenPort in reg as part of these instructions:

    https:// learn. microsoft. com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-7/dd837646(v=ws.10)

    Then BranchCache service may failt to start, but if you look in the event log you see:

    The BranchCache service cannot start because the HTTP namespace used for serving content to requesting clients is not reserved.

    Run the enable cmdlet appropriate to your service mode from an elevated PowerShell command prompt.

    So to reserve this space, run the following command:

    netsh branchcache>set service mode=distributed

    Which then outputs the following:

    Configuring URL Reservation url=http://+:1365/116B50EB-ECE2-41ac-8429-9F9E963361B7/, sddl=D:A;;GX;;;NS) ... Succeeded

    Setting Service Start Type to Manual... Succeeded

    Setting Service Mode... Succeeded

    Starting Service... Succeeded
