A File Manager tool is available in all hosting Control Panels. As the name indicates, it's used to command the files inside an account and all File Managers support a range of primary capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A number of Control Panels can offer you more complex functions too - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Despite the fact that files may be uploaded and downloaded using an FTP client, the File Manager is used way more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it'll be for you to handle your presence online in its entirety. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's difficult to use can make it more irritating and challenging for you to handle your site content, specifically if you do not have previous experience.

File Manager in Shared Website Hosting

The File Manager tool, that is a part of our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel, will enable you to administer all of the files that you upload to your shared website hosting account without any difficulty. You could move files and whole folders by dragging-and-dropping them within the account. You could upload content in the same way - choose a file/folder on your PC and drag it to your 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 create or to unpack an archive, to set up a password-protected area, to change the UNIX permissions using a web interface or to modify the content with a variety of editors without ever leaving the Control Panel – a plain text editor, a code editor or an HTML editor. We have also included help articles and video lessons, which you may access right from the File Manager to find out more about its capabilities.

Since the File Manager supports drag-and-drop actions, you can speedily move any content within the account, including folders, and their structure will be preserved. If you would like to upload any content, you won't need an FTP program, due to the fact that you may drag-and-drop the folders right from your PC. The File Manager also features more complex features and you will be able to change file permissions, to work with archives and to edit files with plain text and HTML editors, that can be accessed through right-click context menus.
