A File Manager software tool is available in all hosting Control Panels. As the name implies, it is used to control the files in an account and all File Managers support a range of primary features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A number of Control Panels may provide more complex functions too - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files can be uploaded and downloaded via an FTP client, the File Manager is used a lot more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it shall be for you to control your presence online as a whole. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that is not easy to use may make it more aggravating and hard for you to handle your Internet site content, especially if you don't have previous experience.
