A File Manager tool is present in all Internet hosting Control Panels. As the name suggests, it's employed to control the files in an account and all File Managers support a number of basic capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Some Control Panels may provide more complex features as well - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files could be uploaded and downloaded through an FTP client, the File Manager is used far more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it will be for you to handle your presence online in general. The opposite is also true - a File Manager which is difficult to use could make it more frustrating and challenging for you to manage your website content, specifically if you don't have previous experience.
File Manager in Shared Website Hosting
Our shared website hosting accounts are controlled using the advanced Hepsia CP, which includes a feature-rich File Manager tool. In case you have not had a hosting account before, you will be able to handle your content without difficulty, as the File Manager is very intuitive to use. It takes only a couple of mouse clicks to create, rename or delete a file, while transferring a file or an entire folder is as basic as dragging-and-dropping it to the needed location. You will be able to upload information in the exact same way - just choose the files on your pc and drag them to your browser, then drop them inside the File Manager, that shall do the rest. Practical right-click menus will enable you to pack/unpack archives, to modify file permissions, to set up password-protected areas or to modify a file with simple and advanced editors.
File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our File Manager tool will enable you to do just about anything you need. It is part of the Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with all semi-dedicated server accounts and in addition to the normal features like renaming, copying or deleting files, you will be able to use right-click menus so as to access more sophisticated ones. With a couple of clicks, you shall be able to password-protect any folder in the account, to edit the UNIX permissions if a script-based application needs it or to change the content of any file using plain text, WYSIWYG editors and code. Additionally, you'll no longer need an FTP program to upload new content since you may just drag-and-drop files and whole folders from your computer straight to the File Manager. The tool will do the rest, keeping the folder structure of the content that you upload.
