A File Manager software tool is available in all web hosting Control Panels. As the name shows, it is used to control the files inside an account and all File Managers support a range of standard capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A few Control Panels can provide more advanced features also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Even though files may be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is employed far more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it'll be for you to control your online presence in its entirety. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's hard to use can make it more aggravating and hard for you to handle your site content, particularly if you lack previous experience.
