A File Manager software tool is available in all web hosting Control Panels. As the name implies, it is employed to command the files inside an account and all File Managers support a range of primary features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A number of Control Panels could offer more advanced features also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Despite the fact that files may be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is used considerably more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it will be for you to handle your presence online in general. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's not easy to use can make it more frustrating and difficult for you to control your website content, specifically if you lack previous experience.
