A File Manager software tool is found in all hosting Control Panels. As the name suggests, it's employed to control the files inside an account and all File Managers support a range of primary features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Certain Control Panels can provide you with more advanced functions also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files may be uploaded and downloaded through an FTP client, the File Manager is used far more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it will be for you to control your presence online altogether. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's difficult to use may make it more irritating and hard for you to manage your website content, especially if you don't have previous experience.
File Manager in Cloud Hosting
When you purchase a cloud hosting service from our company, you can take advantage of an advanced File Manager tool, that is part of our Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. It provides many functions and even standard ones like copying or moving files could be accessed through right-click context menus, that'll make you feel like you’re employing an application on your desktop computer. If you transfer whole folders, their structure shall be kept intact, so you shall not have to be concerned about scrambled files. The context menus will give you access to loads of other advanced capabilities too, so things such as creating an archive of a whole folder or creating a password-protected area shall be just a click away. What is more, you will not need a third-party FTP program to upload content, due to the fact that our File Manager supports drag-and-drop file and folder uploads. You could also use three different file editors – a plain text editor, a WYSIWYG editor and a code editor.
File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our innovative, albeit user-friendly File Manager provides you with total control over your content and you won't have any challenges managing the folders and files that you set up or upload to your semi-dedicated server account, even though you may have never used a web hosting service before. The options it is offering are no more than several clicks away, even the more sophisticated ones including creating a password-protected folder, setting up or unpacking an archive, adjusting UNIX permissions or opening a file in a plain text or an HTML editor. From right-click context menus, you'll feel as if you’re working on your desktop computer. In addition, the File Manager supports dragging-and-dropping of files and entire folders - both in the account and from your computer. With the latter alternative, you are able to upload content directly, which eradicates the need for an FTP client.
