A File Manager software tool is found in all web hosting Control Panels. As the name indicates, it's used to command the files in an account and all File Managers support a range of basic features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Some Control Panels can provide you with more advanced functions also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Though files can be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is used way more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it shall be for you to manage your online presence altogether. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that is not easy to use could make it more frustrating and complicated for you to control the website content, particularly if you lack previous experience.
File Manager in Hosting
Our hosting accounts are controlled through the advanced Hepsia CP, which comes with a feature-rich File Manager tool. Even though you may have not had a web hosting account before, you'll be able to control your information without difficulty, as the File Manager is quite intuitive to use. It takes just a couple of mouse clicks to create, rename or delete a file, while relocating a file or an entire folder is as simple as dragging-and-dropping it to the desirable location. You will be able to upload information in the exact same way - just select the files on your personal computer and drag them to your web browser, then drop them in the File Manager, that will do the rest. Practical right-click menus will allow you to pack/unpack archives, to change file permissions, to create password-protected areas or to change a file with simple and advanced editors.
File Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our File Manager tool will enable you to do practically anything you require. It's a part of the Hepsia Control Panel, provided with all semi-dedicated server accounts and aside from the normal functions like renaming, copying or deleting files, you shall be able to use right-click menus in order to access more advanced ones. With several mouse clicks, you'll be able to password-protect any folder inside the account, to edit the UNIX permissions in case a script-based application requires it or to alter the content of any file using code, plain text and WYSIWYG editors. Additionally, you'll no longer require an FTP program to upload new content as you can simply drag-and-drop files and whole folders from your laptop or computer straight to the File Manager. The tool shall do the rest, conserving the folder structure of the content you upload.
