A File Manager software tool is present in all website hosting Control Panels. As the name implies, it is used to command the files inside an account and all File Managers support a variety of standard capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Some Control Panels could provide you with more complex features also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Even though files could be uploaded and downloaded through an FTP client, the File Manager is employed far more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it shall be for you to manage your presence online as a whole. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that is difficult to use may make it more annoying and tough for you to manage your Internet site content, specifically if you don't have previous experience.
