A File Manager tool is available in all hosting Control Panels. As the name suggests, it's employed to manage the files inside an account and all File Managers support a number of standard features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Some Control Panels can provide you with more advanced features too - 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 considerably more often, so the simpler 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 that is difficult to use may make it more annoying and complicated for you to manage your Internet site content, especially if you do not have previous experience.

File Manager in Cloud Hosting

The File Manager tool, that is part of our custom Hepsia CP, allows you to administer all the files you upload to your cloud hosting account with ease. You could move files and whole folders by dragging-and-dropping them within the account. You can upload content in the same manner - pick a file/folder on your personal computer and drag it to your web browser in which the File Manager is loaded. By right-clicking a file or a folder in your account, you can also access context menus with more advanced options - you shall be able to set up or to unpack an archive, to set up a password-protected area, to change the UNIX permissions using a web interface or to change the content with numerous editors without ever leaving the Control Panel – a plain text editor, a code editor or an HTML editor. We have also provided help articles and educational videos, that you can access straight from the File Manager to learn more about its features.
