As we know, by default when you create a new site on IIS8.5, it creates a matching app pool and this is run under the identity ApplicationPoolIdentity. We can go into the advanced settings of the app pool and change the identity manually, but is there a way to specify a different user that all new app pools can be run under, by default?

There’s a Set Application Pool defaults on the top right Actions Pane. However it will affect existing application pools if they are defaulted as well.

Should have been more specific, but glad it was found. For everyone else, it’s in the Application Pools view. – milope Nov 24 '17 at 04:23
