A File Manager software tool is available in all Internet hosting Control Panels. As the name indicates, it's used to manage the files inside an account and all File Managers support a range of basic features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Several Control Panels could provide more complex capabilities as well - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files can be uploaded and downloaded via 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 control your online presence in general. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that is tough to use can make it more aggravating and complicated for you to control your website content, especially if you don't have previous experience.
File Manager in Shared Hosting
If you purchase a shared hosting from our company, you can take advantage of an advanced File Manager tool, that is part of our Hepsia hosting Control Panel. It includes a lot of features and even conventional ones including copying or moving files can be accessed using right-click context menus, that will make you feel like you’re employing an app on your home PC. If you move whole folders, their structure shall be kept intact, so you will not have to concern yourself with scrambled files. The context menus will provide you with access to a lot of other advanced features also, so stuff like creating an archive of an entire folder or creating a password-protected area will be simply a click away. What is more, you'll not need a third-party FTP program to upload content, as our File Manager supports drag-and-drop file and folder uploads. You can even use 3 different file editors – a plain text editor, a WYSIWYG editor and a code editor.
