   2. Select your /PhotoEditor folder in the site tree and right-click it to open a context menu.
   3. Choose Convert to Application.
3. Set the modify permission for the /PhotoEditor/App_Data/PhotoEditor/Cache, /PhotoEditor/GraphicsMill /PublicCache, and /PhotoEditor/GraphicsMill/PrivateCache folders for the following accounts:
