A File Manager tool is available in all Internet hosting Control Panels. As the name implies, it is used to control the files inside an account and all File Managers support a range of standard features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Some Control Panels can offer more complex features also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files may be uploaded and downloaded via an FTP client, the File Manager is used way more often, so the easier 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 tough to use could make it more frustrating and complicated for you to control your site content, specifically if you don't have previous experience.

The feature-rich File Manager which comes with our shared web hosting packages shall make controlling your content as easy as managing files on your personal computer or laptop. You will be able to drag-and-drop files and folders not just in the account, but also straight from your computer, so you'll no longer need an FTP client to upload information. In addition, the folder structure shall be kept, so files from different folders won't get mixed. You can also use right-click context menus and access different functions. You will be able to set up and extract archives, to create password-protected areas and more. If you would like to change files, you can do that using a number of different editors - a plain text editor, a code editor and a WYSIWYG editor, so you can select the one you need and feel most at ease working with.
