2. Add write permissions to the `App_Data` and `Custom` folder.
3. Installation is done.
4. You can navigate to administration by adding `/admin/` to your website's URL, for example: `http://yourblog.com/admin/`
5. Username: `admin` Password `admin`


### 2. Source Code
This is the developer option. If you are interested is seeing how things work or want to add to the functionality, this is your option.

Environment:
  * Visual Studio 2015 +
  * ASP.NET 4.5 +

Steps:

After install, update `machineKey` in `Web.config` with values generated with tool [like this](https://www.allkeysgenerator.com/Random/ASP-Net-MachineKey-Generator.aspx). This will prevent known exploit (reported Sep 2019). This only effects if you use default `admin` account.
