A File Manager software tool is found in all Internet hosting Control Panels. As the name suggests, it's used to command the files inside an account and all File Managers support a number of basic functions - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Certain Control Panels may offer more complex functions as well - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files could be uploaded and downloaded via an FTP client, the File Manager is used a lot more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it'll be for you to handle your presence online as a whole. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's not easy to use could make it more frustrating and challenging for you to control the site content, specifically if you don't have previous experience.
File Manager in Web Hosting
Our web hosting accounts are managed through the sophisticated Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with a feature-rich File Manager tool. Even if you have never had an Internet hosting account before, you shall be able to control your information effortlessly, because the File Manager is quite intuitive to use. It requires only a few clicks to set up, rename or delete a file, while relocating a file or an entire folder is as simple as dragging-and-dropping it to the needed location. You'll be able to upload content in the very same way - simply choose the files on your computer and drag them to your web browser, then drop them within the File Manager, which shall do the rest. Practical right-click menus will enable you to pack/unpack archives, to modify file permissions, to create password-protected areas or to change a file with simple and advanced editors.
File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our File Manager tool will permit you to do pretty much anything you need. It is a part of the Hepsia CP, which comes with all semi-dedicated server accounts and besides the regular features including copying, deleting or renaming files, you will be able to use right-click menus so as to access more complex ones. With a few mouse clicks, you will 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 modify the content of any file using WYSIWYG editors, plain text and code. Also, you will no longer require an FTP program to upload new content because you could just drag-and-drop files and whole folders from your laptop or computer directly to the File Manager. The tool will do the rest, saving the folder structure of the content which you upload.
