title: IIS Express unable to create the virtual directory
body: <p>I'm using IIS Express to create a virtual directory at <code>http://localhost:5000/</code> and received this error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Unable to create the virtual directory. The URL <code>http://localhost:5000/</code> is already mapped to a different folder...</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>This is because I've used the port 5000 for an old project before and it's no longer needed. </p>
  
  <p>My question is, how can I remove the old mapping using IIS Express so I can create the virtual directory at the same port again?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
