Solution:
- First, you need to log into your Plesk
- Second, you need to rename the file web.config into the name as a web.config.bak in the domainname.com\httpdocs directory.
- You need to disable Microsoft ASP.NET support and Microsoft ASP support by going to Domains then go to example.com and click on Hosting Settings. See the structure Domains >> example.com >> Hosting Settings.
- Here you have to confirm that test .txt file has been created inside your domain example.com\httpdocs\.well-known\acme-challenge\ directory and it is accessible by online or Internet at http://domainname.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/test.txt.
- Now you need to install a Let's Encrypt certificate at on given domain by clicking on Domains >> domainname.com >> Let's Encrypt.
- Now you need to enable Microsoft ASP.NET support and Microsoft ASP support again.
- At last, you need to rename as it was before like web.config back from web.config.bak file.
