A File Manager tool is present in all hosting Control Panels. As the name implies, it's employed to command the files in an account and all File Managers support a range of standard capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Certain Control Panels could provide you with more advanced features also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Though files could be uploaded and downloaded using an FTP client, the File Manager is employed much more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it shall be for you to control your online presence as a whole. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that is hard to use could make it more annoying and complicated for you to manage your website content, particularly if you lack previous experience.

File Manager in Shared Website Hosting

The File Manager tool, which is a part of our in-house built Hepsia CP, allows you to administer all of the files that you upload to your shared website hosting account without any difficulty. You'll be able to move files and entire folders by dragging-and-dropping them inside the account. You can easily upload content in the same way - pick a file/folder on your computer and drag it to your web browser in which the File Manager is loaded. By right-clicking a file or a folder in your account, you may also access context menus with more complex options - you will be able to create or to unpack an archive, to create a password-protected area, to modify the UNIX permissions through 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 lessons, which you can access from the File Manager to find out more about its features.
