A File Manager software tool is available in all hosting Control Panels. As the name suggests, it's used to control the files in an account and all File Managers support a range of standard features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A number of Control Panels could provide you with more advanced features as well - 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 used far more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it shall be for you to handle your presence online in its entirety. The opposite is also true - a File Manager which is not easy to use can make it more frustrating and complicated for you to manage your site content, specifically if you lack previous experience.

File Manager in Cloud Hosting

If you get a Linux cloud hosting from our company, you can take advantage of an advanced File Manager tool, that's part of our Hepsia website hosting hosting Control Panel. It comes with a lot of functions and even regular ones including copying or moving files could be accessed through right-click context menus, which will make you feel like you’re using an app on your computer system. If you move entire folders, their structure shall be kept intact, so you won't need to be worried about scrambled files. The context menus will provide you with access to loads of other innovative functions as well, so things such as creating an archive of a whole folder or creating a password-protected area shall be merely a click away. What is more, you'll not need a third-party FTP program to upload content, as our File Manager supports drag & drop and folder uploads. You can even use 3 separate file editors – a code editor, a plain text editor and a WYSIWYG editor.

File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our File Manager tool will permit you to do pretty much anything you require. It's part of the Hepsia CP, provided with all semi-dedicated server accounts and aside from the regular functions like copying, deleting or renaming files, you can use right-click menus to access more advanced ones. With a few clicks, you shall be able to password-protect any folder in the account, to modify the UNIX permissions if a script-based application requires it or to edit the content of any file using WYSIWYG editors, plain text and code. What is more, you'll no longer need an FTP program to upload new content as you could just drag-and-drop files and entire folders from your pc straight to the File Manager. The tool will do the rest, saving the folder structure of the content which you upload.
