Global.asa: noways to download/upload?

Hello!
Thank you for a great job, all the functions run how expected but one: It cannot download the global.asa file! There is an error indicating smth. like "no requests possible for global.asa". It's a standard IIS behaviour, I think.

Any clues to avoid?

Hi,
WebExplorer Free 1.8 does not handle downloading of files, it just creates
download URLs for the files.
As you guessed, the error is a standard IIS behaviour but there is a way of
disabling it:
Open IIS snap-in > Properties > Virtual Directory > Configuration > Mappings
and remove the entry for "asa" extension in Application Mappings. You can do
this for a specific virtual folder or a web site. But the drawback here is
that global.asa files will not be executed within that virtual folder or web
site.
In the upcoming version, I will add "real" download feature to WebExplorer
Free hence this problem will be solved.
