A File Manager software tool is found in all web hosting Control Panels. As the name suggests, it is employed to manage the files in an account and all File Managers support a range of primary functions - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A few Control Panels may offer you more advanced functions also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files could be uploaded and downloaded via an FTP client, the File Manager is employed much more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it shall be for you to manage your online presence in its entirety. The opposite is also true - a File Manager which is tough to use could make it more frustrating and tough for you to manage your Internet site content, particularly if you lack previous experience.
