    I moved my wp site from a sub-directory to the root httpdocs folder so I could quit using a redirect.

    1) move entire contents of wordpress folder to the httpdocs folder
    2) change the settings in the General section to remove the /wordpress
    3) Done!

    Those were my basic steps, now when I try to install a new plugin:

    Downloading install package from http://downloads.wp.xz.cn/plugin/image-widget.3.2.11.zip…
    
    Warning: touch() [function.touch]: Unable to create file C:\Inetpub\vhosts\taylorspecialty.com\httpdocs/wp-content/image-widget.tmp because Permission denied in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\taylorspecialty.com\httpdocs\wp-admin\includes\file.php on line 177

    btw, I did follow the instructions on the wp website! Still weird things happen when I try and do an update or install of a plugin.

    Perhaps there’s a setting in wp-config that still directs to the old folder? Or a WP setting for the plugins folders or something?

    Ok so I’m stupid, my whole web life I have been using linux based systems and unfortunately I am stuck at the moment using a web application that was developed for windows asp.net hosting. So I thought I would install my site there too, I love WP so hey why not.

    To make a long story short you cannot chmod files 0644 etc. you have to login to the windows hosting panel to change permissions LOL
