The below steps will assist you in enabling CORS for your website hosted on our Windows shared hosting packages. 

• Download your web.config file via FTP. 
• Edit your web.config file and add the below code. 

  <configuration>
    <system.webServer>
      <httpProtocol>
        <customHeaders>
          <add name="Access-Control-Allow-Origin" value="*" />
        </customHeaders>
      </httpProtocol>
    </system.webServer>

Your web.config should look like the example below once done

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
  <configuration>
    <system.webServer>
      <httpProtocol>
        <customHeaders>
          <add name="Access-Control-Allow-Origin" value="*" />
        </customHeaders>
      </httpProtocol>
    </system.webServer>
  </configuration>

• Save the edited web.config file and upload this to your wwwroot folder for your website or the same location that it was downloaded from.
• Ensure that any existing web.config file is overwritten. 
• Browse your website again to test if this has worked. CORS should now be enabled for you.
