A File Manager software tool is available in all Internet hosting Control Panels. As the name implies, it's used to command the files inside an account and all File Managers support a range of basic capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A number of Control Panels could provide you with more advanced capabilities also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Even though files can be uploaded and downloaded through an FTP client, the File Manager is used way more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it will be for you to control your online presence in its entirety. The opposite is also true - a File Manager which is difficult to use can make it more annoying and tough for you to control the site content, specifically if you don't have previous experience.

File Manager in Cloud Web Hosting

The File Manager tool, which is part of our custom Hepsia Control Panel, will allow you to administer all the files which you upload to your cloud web hosting account with ease. You are able to move files and entire folders by dragging-and-dropping them in the account. You can easily upload content in the same manner - select a file/folder on your PC and drag it to your Internet browser where the File Manager is loaded. By right-clicking a file or a folder inside your account, you may also access context menus with more sophisticated options - you will be able to set up or to unpack an archive, to create a password-protected area, to modify the UNIX permissions via a web interface or to edit the content with a number of editors without ever leaving the CP – an HTML editor, a plain text editor or a code editor. We've also added help articles and video tutorials, which you may access straight from the File Manager to get more information about its functions.

File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you host your Internet sites inside a semi-dedicated server account with us, you shall be able to benefit from our feature-rich File Manager. The tool is a part of the custom-developed Hepsia Control Panel and is just as easy and user-friendly. It will only take a click to set up, rename or delete a file or a folder inside your account and for your convenience, you'll be able to sort the content by type, size, name or last modified date. Since the File Manager supports drag-and-drop actions, you can swiftly transfer any content within the account, including folders, and their structure will be preserved. If you would like to upload any content, you won't need an FTP program, as you can drag-and-drop the folders straight from your computer system. The File Manager also comes with more complex features and you will be able to modify file permissions, to work with archives and to edit files with plain text and HTML editors, which could be accessed through right-click context menus.
