A File Manager tool is available in all Internet hosting Control Panels. As the name suggests, it is used to control the files inside an account and all File Managers support a number of primary capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A number of Control Panels could provide more advanced functions also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Though files can be uploaded and downloaded via an FTP client, the File Manager is used a lot more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it will be for you to handle your online presence as a whole. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's hard to use could make it more aggravating and tough for you to manage the website content, especially if you lack previous experience.
