A File Manager tool is present in all website hosting Control Panels. As the name suggests, it's employed to manage the files inside an account and all File Managers support a variety of standard capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Some Control Panels can provide more advanced functions also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Though files may be uploaded and downloaded via an FTP client, the File Manager is used a lot more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it'll be for you to manage your online presence in its entirety. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's hard to use could make it more frustrating and complicated for you to manage the website content, specifically if you lack previous experience.

File Manager in Web Hosting

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