A File Manager software tool is present in all web hosting Control Panels. As the name shows, it is employed to command the files in an account and all File Managers support a number of standard functions - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A few Control Panels may provide you with more advanced functions as well - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Even though files can be uploaded and downloaded using an FTP client, the File Manager is employed considerably more often, so the simpler 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 could make it more annoying and tough for you to handle your Internet site content, especially if you don't have previous experience.
