A File Manager tool is present in all hosting Control Panels. As the name implies, it's used to control the files inside an account and all File Managers support a variety of basic features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A number of Control Panels may offer you more advanced capabilities also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Even though files can be uploaded and downloaded through an FTP client, the File Manager is used much more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it will be for you to manage your presence online altogether. The opposite is also true - a File Manager which is hard to use can make it more aggravating and complicated for you to manage the site content, specifically if you lack previous experience.

File Manager in Shared Website Hosting

The File Manager tool, that's part of our custom Hepsia CP, will enable you to administer all the files which you upload to your shared website 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 way - pick a file/folder on your computer system and drag it to your browser where the File Manager is loaded. By right-clicking a file or a folder inside your account, you may also access context menus with more complex options - you'll be able to set up or to unpack an archive, to create a password-protected area, to change the UNIX permissions using a web interface or to modify the content with numerous editors without ever leaving the Control Panel – an HTML editor, a plain text editor or a code editor. We've also provided help articles and video tutorials, which you can access from the File Manager to learn more about its features.
