File Manager
Learn more about the functions of a File Manager within a web hosting control panel and why you will need one.
All hosting accounts are handled via a Control Panel and no matter the brand of the latter, there is always a File Manager tool, which enables you to look at the files which you have uploaded inside the website hosting account and to carry out basic operations with them, such as moving, copying or deleting. With respect to the specific tool, there could be more complex functions too, like control over permissions and archives. Some Control Panels are simpler to use than others and so are their File Manager sections. Due to the fact that this is the main tool you will employ to manage your files, it's critical to check in advance what options it offers and if it will appeal to you, because a hard-to-use File Manager may be a burden and will make managing your web presence more challenging.

File Manager in Cloud Hosting
The File Manager tool, that is part of our in-house built Hepsia CP, will allow you to administer all of the files which you upload to your
cloud hosting account without any difficulty. You are able to move files and whole folders by dragging-and-dropping them in the account. You may upload content in the same manner - select a file/folder on your computer and drag it to your Internet browser in which the File Manager is loaded. By right-clicking a file or a folder in your account, you may also access context menus with more sophisticated options - you'll be able to create or to unpack an archive, to set up a password-protected area, to alter the UNIX permissions using a web interface or to change the content with a number of editors without ever leaving the Control Panel – an HTML editor, a plain text editor or a code editor. We have also included help articles and video lessons, which you can access right from the File Manager to get more information about its functions.
