A File Manager tool is found in all website hosting Control Panels. As the name suggests, it's used to manage the files in an account and all File Managers support a variety of basic functions - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A number of Control Panels may offer more complex features as well - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Though files may be uploaded and downloaded through an FTP client, the File Manager is used a lot more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it'll be for you to control your presence online in its entirety. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's hard to use may make it more frustrating and tough for you to handle the website content, especially if you lack previous experience.
File Manager in Cloud Hosting
The feature-rich File Manager which comes with our cloud hosting plans shall make handling your web content as simple as handling files on your computer or laptop. You will be able to drag-and-drop files and folders not only inside the account, but also directly from your PC, so you shall no longer require an FTP client to upload content. Also, the folder structure will be preserved, so files from separate folders will not get mixed. You can also use right-click context menus and access various functions. You shall be able to set up and extract archives, to create password-protected areas and a lot more. If you want to edit files, you could do that using several different editors - a plain text editor, a code editor and a WYSIWYG editor, so you may select the one you need and feel most comfy working with.
File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our File Manager tool will permit you to do practically anything you require. It is an element of the Hepsia Control Panel, that comes with all semi-dedicated server accounts and apart from the regular features including copying, deleting or renaming files, you shall be able to use right-click menus so as to access more advanced ones. With a couple of clicks, you shall be able to password-protect any folder inside the account, to change the UNIX permissions if a script-based app requires it or to change the content of any file using plain text, code and WYSIWYG editors. In addition, you'll no longer require an FTP program to upload new content as you can just drag-and-drop files and whole folders from your pc directly to the File Manager. The tool shall do the rest, preserving the folder structure of the content which you upload.
