A File Manager tool is available in all website hosting Control Panels. As the name suggests, it is employed to command the files in an account and all File Managers support a range of primary capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Several Control Panels may offer you more complex functions too - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Despite the fact that files could be uploaded and downloaded using an FTP client, the File Manager is employed way more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it shall be for you to manage your online presence altogether. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that is hard to use can make it more aggravating and complicated for you to manage the site content, especially if you lack previous experience.
