A File Manager software tool is available in all Internet hosting Control Panels. As the name indicates, it's employed to control the files in an account and all File Managers support a variety of standard features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Several Control Panels could provide you with more complex functions as well - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Even though files may be uploaded and downloaded through an FTP client, the File Manager is used much more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it will be for you to manage your online presence altogether. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that is not easy to use could make it more annoying and challenging for you to handle the site content, specifically if you do not have previous experience.
File Manager in Cloud Hosting
The feature-rich File Manager included with our cloud hosting plans will make controlling your web content as simple as managing files on your personal computer or notebook. You shall be able to drag-and-drop folders and files not just within the account, but also directly from your personal computer, so you will no longer need an FTP client to upload data. What's more, the folder structure shall be preserved, so files from separate folders won't get mixed. You can also use right-click context menus and access various features. You will be able to create and extract archives, to set up password-protected areas plus much more. If you would like to edit files, you can do that using several different editors - a plain text editor, a code editor and a WYSIWYG editor, so you can choose the one you need and feel most comfy working with.
File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our advanced, albeit intuitive File Manager provides you with full control over your content and you'll not have any problems managing the folders and files which you create or upload to your semi-dedicated server account, even though you may have never used a web hosting service before. The options it is supplying are just several mouse clicks away, even the more advanced ones like setting up a password-protected folder, creating or unpacking an archive, changing UNIX permissions or opening a file in a plain text or an HTML editor. From right-click context menus, you will feel as if you’re working on your own computer system. In addition, the File Manager supports dragging-and-dropping of files and entire folders - both within the account and from your computer.
