A File Manager tool is found in all website hosting Control Panels. As the name shows, it is employed to control the files inside an account and all File Managers support a variety of basic features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Some Control Panels may offer more complex functions too - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files may be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is employed considerably more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it will be for you to manage your online presence altogether. The opposite is also true - a File Manager which is tough to use can make it more irritating and tough for you to handle the site content, particularly if you don't have previous experience.
File Manager in Shared Website Hosting
The File Manager tool, that's part of our in-house made Hepsia CP, will enable you to administer all the files that you upload to your shared website hosting account with ease. You could move files and entire folders by dragging-and-dropping them inside the account. You can easily upload content in the same manner - select a file/folder on your personal computer 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 could also access context menus with more sophisticated options - you shall be able to set up or to unpack an archive, to create a password-protected area, to alter the UNIX permissions via a web interface or to edit the content with various editors without ever leaving the CP – an HTML editor, a plain text editor or a code editor. We've also added help articles and video lessons, you can access right from the File Manager to learn more about its functions.
