A File Manager software tool is found in all hosting Control Panels. As the name shows, it's used to command the files inside an account and all File Managers support a number of primary features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A few Control Panels may offer you more complex functions as well - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Even though files may be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is employed way more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it'll be for you to handle your online presence in its entirety. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that is hard to use can make it more irritating and challenging for you to manage the website content, especially if you lack previous experience.
File Manager in Shared Website Hosting
Our shared website hosting accounts are handled through the advanced Hepsia CP, that includes a feature-rich File Manager tool. Even though you may have not had a hosting account before, you'll be able to manage your information without difficulty, as the File Manager is extremely intuitive to use. It requires only a few mouse 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 desired location. You will be able to upload information in the same exact way - simply choose the files on your computer and drag them to your web browser, then drop them inside the File Manager, which will do the rest. Convenient right-click menus will allow you to pack/unpack archives, to modify file permissions, to create password-protected areas or to modify a file with simple and advanced editors.
File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our File Manager tool will allow you to do practically anything you need. It's an element of the Hepsia CP, included with all semi-dedicated server accounts and apart from the regular features including renaming, copying or deleting files, you'll be able to use right-click menus in order to access more advanced ones. With a couple of clicks, you shall be able to password-protect any folder inside the account, to modify the UNIX permissions if a script-based application requires it or to alter the content of any file using code, plain text and WYSIWYG editors. Furthermore, you'll 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 which you upload.
