A File Manager tool is present in all Internet hosting Control Panels. As the name indicates, it is used to manage the files in an account and all File Managers support a variety of primary functions - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Some Control Panels may offer you more advanced capabilities also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files could be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is employed far more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it will be for you to manage your online presence as a whole. The opposite is also true - a File Manager which is hard to use could make it more aggravating and difficult for you to control your Internet site content, especially if you don't have previous experience.
File Manager in Website Hosting
Our website hosting accounts are managed using the advanced Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with a feature-rich File Manager tool. In case you have never had a website hosting account before, you will be able to handle your information without difficulty, simply because the File Manager is extremely intuitive to use. It requires just a couple of clicks to set up, rename or delete a file, while transferring a file or a whole folder is as basic as dragging-and-dropping it to the desirable location. You'll be able to upload data in the very same way - just choose the files on your personal computer and drag them to your web browser, then drop them in the File Manager, which shall do the rest. Handy right-click menus will allow you to pack/unpack archives, to change 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 allow you to do pretty much anything you require. It's an element of the Hepsia CP, included with all semi-dedicated server accounts and in addition to the regular features such as renaming, copying or deleting files, you will be able to use right-click menus in order to access more advanced ones. With a few mouse clicks, you will be able to password-protect any folder inside the account, to modify the UNIX permissions in case a script-based app requires it or to change the content of any file using plain text, code and WYSIWYG editors. Additionally, you shall no longer require an FTP program to upload new content as you could simply drag-and-drop files and entire folders from your computer directly to the File Manager. The tool will do the rest, keeping the folder structure of the content that you upload.
