IIS Application Creation

Question

I am trying to create an IIS Application from a physical location within the root folder of IIS. Every guide I can find shows how to create a virtual directory, but I only need to create the application from a physical directory. I also want to set the Application Protection to Medium. Does anyone know how to do this in C#? Thanks!

Yes I knew how to do that. I meant: how do you do it with c#?

go into your IIS settings(Control Panel --> Administrative Tools --> Internet Information Services). right click on your Default Website and choose Properties. If you have more than one version of the .Net framework installed you will be allowed to choose which version. If you only have one version then you have to use that version.

I figured it out. I changed the schema class to IIsWebDirectory instead of IIsWebVirtualDir and that solved it. And to set the protection to medium I set the property AppIsolated to a value of 2. Only one more thing: how to set the ASP .NET version? By default nothing is selected.
