Thanks, James.

Actually, I was able to get it working the way I want, without moving my 
site files under the CF webroot location. I did some more digging and 
found a tech note on how to set up virtual mappings in the 
E:/Programs/CFusionMX7/wwwroot/WEB-INF/jrun-web.xml file (I had 
forgotten about this since it was a couple of years ago when I last 
configured my CF dev server). I was also able to leave the CFIDE files 
under the CF webroot. Here's what I ended up with in jrun-web.xml:

   <virtual-mapping>
     <resource-path>/WEB-INF</resource-path>
     <system-path>E:/Programs/CFusionMX7/wwwroot/WEB-INF</system-path>
    </virtual-mapping>

   <virtual-mapping>
     <resource-path>/myapps</resource-path>
     <system-path>D:/webapps/myapps</system-path>
   </virtual-mapping>

Sites entered in the browser like this now work:

http://localhost:8500/myapps/mysite/

P.S. As to my other issue, enabling RDS fixed the problem with not being 
able to browse file directories.

Cheers.
