I currently have a website that is run on Windows Server 2012 R2. I have deployed my site to a specific folder on the server without using the "precompile during publishing" option. The website works and runs fine.
However, in order to improve the performance of my site, I want to update my publish profile to precompile during publishing. Will I need to delete the existing website files on the server? And what is the best way/practices of going about with this change in order not to break anything?
Note: The website is still new, so I do not need to preserve any data.
