File Manager
Find out more about the attributes of a File Manager inside a web hosting control panel and why you will need one.
A File Manager software tool is found in all web hosting Control Panels. As the name shows, it is used to control the files in an account and all File Managers support a range of primary capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A few Control Panels may offer more advanced capabilities also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files may be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is employed a lot more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it shall be for you to manage your presence online in general. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that is hard to use can make it more annoying and difficult for you to handle your website content, particularly if you do not have previous experience.
