How to change registry keys for DefaultAppPool?

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23385168

Question

Worker process of our ASP.NET application runs as DefaultAppPool which does not have access to registry keys of logged-on user and cannot debug VBScript invoked from C#. Can I add registry keys to DefaultAppPool user account?

Was it helpful?

Solution

DefaultAppPool is not an account, it's an app pool. Inside that app pool you can define which account it runs under (advanced settings / Identity)

Assign it a windows account that has sufficient privileges. Normally you would create a windows account especially for the purpose.
