A File Manager software tool is found in all Internet hosting Control Panels. As the name shows, it's used to command the files in an account and all File Managers support a range of basic 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. Even though files may be uploaded and downloaded via an FTP client, the File Manager is employed much more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it will be for you to handle your presence online altogether. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that is difficult to use could make it more frustrating and tough for you to control your site content, specifically if you don't have previous experience.

File Manager in Cloud Website Hosting

The File Manager tool, that is a part of our in-house developed Hepsia Control Panel, allows you to administer all the files which you upload to your cloud website hosting account without any difficulty. You may move files and whole folders by dragging-and-dropping them inside the account. You can upload content in the same manner - pick a file/folder on your computer system and drag it to your browser where the File Manager is loaded. By right-clicking a file or a folder within your account, you may also access context menus with more advanced options - you'll be able to create or to unpack an archive, to set up a password-protected area, to modify the UNIX permissions through a web interface or to edit the content with a variety of editors without ever leaving the CP – an HTML editor, a plain text editor or a code editor. We have also added help articles and video tutorials, you can access straight from the File Manager to learn more about its capabilities.

File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our highly developed, though easy-to-work with File Manager will give you 100 % control over your content and you won't have any problems handling the folders and files which you set up or upload to your semi-dedicated server account, even though you may have never used a website hosting service before. The options it's offering are no more than several clicks away, even the more advanced ones including creating a password-protected folder, creating or unpacking an archive, modifying UNIX permissions or opening a file inside a plain text or an HTML editor. Through right-click context menus, you will feel just as if you’re working on your computer. Additionally, the File Manager supports dragging-and-dropping of files and entire folders - both inside the account and from your personal computer. With the latter option, you are able to upload content directly, which eliminates the need for any FTP client.
