A File Manager software tool is present in all web hosting Control Panels. As the name implies, it's employed to manage the files in an account and all File Managers support a variety of basic functions - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Some Control Panels could offer you more advanced features too - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files may be uploaded and downloaded through an FTP client, the File Manager is employed considerably more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it will be for you to handle your presence online in general. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's tough to use could make it more aggravating and tough for you to handle your Internet site content, especially if you do not have previous experience.

File Manager in Website Hosting

The File Manager tool, that is a part of our in-house made Hepsia CP, will enable you to administer all of the files you upload to your website hosting account easily. You could move files and whole folders by dragging-and-dropping them within the account. You may upload content in the same manner - select a file/folder on your personal computer and drag it to your Internet browser where the File Manager is loaded. By right-clicking a file or a folder in your account, you may also access context menus with more sophisticated options - you will be able to create or to unpack an archive, to set up a password-protected area, to modify the UNIX permissions via a web interface or to modify the content with a number of editors without ever leaving the CP – a code editor, an HTML editor or a plain text editor. We've also included help articles and video tutorials, which you can access from the File Manager to learn more about its features.
