A File Manager tool is present in all Internet hosting Control Panels. As the name indicates, it's employed to command the files inside an account and all File Managers support a variety of standard capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Several Control Panels can provide more complex features also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Though files may be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is employed way more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it'll be for you to manage your presence online altogether. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that is difficult to use could make it more aggravating and complicated for you to manage your site content, especially if you don't have previous experience.

File Manager in Web Hosting

The File Manager tool, which is part of our in-house developed Hepsia Control Panel, allows you to administer all the files you upload to your web hosting account effortlessly. You can move files and entire folders by dragging-and-dropping them in the account. You could upload content in the same manner - pick a file/folder on your computer system and drag it to your web browser in which the File Manager is loaded. By right-clicking a file or a folder within your account, you can also access context menus with more advanced options - you will be able to create or to unpack an archive, to set up a password-protected area, to alter the UNIX permissions via a web interface or to change the content with various editors without ever leaving the CP – a plain text editor, a code editor or an HTML editor. We've also included help articles and instructional videos, that you can access straight from the File Manager to find out more about its functions.

File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our highly developed, albeit intuitive File Manager provides you with complete control over your content and you won't have any difficulties handling the files and folders which you create or upload to your semi-dedicated server account, even if you have never used a hosting service before. The options it's supplying are just a couple of mouse clicks away, even the more advanced ones such as creating a password-protected folder, setting up or unpacking an archive, adjusting UNIX permissions or opening a file inside a plain text or an HTML editor. Using right-click context menus, you will feel like you’re working on your own computer system. In addition, the File Manager supports dragging-and-dropping of files and whole folders - both inside the account and from your notebook or computer. With the latter alternative, you may upload content directly, which eliminates the need for any FTP client.
