  1. Locate the folder containing your DAM Center inĀ "Webs" and open it.
  2. Find the file called "web.config".
  3. Open the file by right-clicking it and selecting "Edit with Notepad++"
  4. Remember to not make any chages to this file.

Here is the description of all the configuration parameters:
