Re: How do I enable the FP SE?

Ok, sorry. However you can not just copy files extension related file from one folder to another
(wwwroot to default web), you must set the FP extensions up via the IIS MMC, and then the Server
Extensions Admin application under Control Panel | Admin Tools, if running Windows 2003 Server or
the FP2002 extensions under Windows XP or 2000.

The FP extensions become unique to the machine and folder/web they are install on and used with, so
they can not be copied between location. FP never publishing the hidden _vti folder and any other
extensions related files or folders between location, etc.

The grayed out check mark means that the folder contains some hidden Windows System files/folders.
