A File Manager software tool is available in all website hosting Control Panels. As the name shows, it is used to command the files in an account and all File Managers support a variety of basic capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Several Control Panels can provide you with more complex capabilities as well - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Though files could be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is used a lot 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 that is difficult to use could make it more annoying and hard for you to manage your Internet site content, particularly if you lack previous experience.
