File Manager

Learn more about the features of a File Manager inside a web hosting control panel and why you will need one.

All web hosting accounts are managed through a Control Panel and whatever the brand of the latter, there's always a File Manager tool, which allows you to look at the files that you've uploaded inside the hosting account and to execute basic operations with them, such as moving, copying or deleting. Based on the particular tool, there can be more complex functions too, such as control over permissions and archives. Certain Control Panels are simpler to work with than others and so are their File Manager sections. Since that's the main tool that you'll employ to control your files, it's crucial to check in advance what options it provides and if it'll appeal to you, because a hard-to-use File Manager can be a burden and could make managing your presence online more challenging.
