All website hosting accounts are managed using a CP and regardless of the type of the latter, you can always find a File Manager tool, which allows you to look at the files that you have uploaded inside the web hosting account and to carry out simple operations with them, such as moving, copying or deleting. With respect to the particular tool, there could be more advanced functions as well, like control over permissions and archives. Certain Control Panels are easier to work with compared to others and so are their File Manager sections. Considering that that's the main tool you will employ to manage your files, it is crucial to check in advance what options it provides and if it will work for you, because a hard-to-use File Manager may be a burden and will make managing your online presence more challenging.

File Manager in Cloud Hosting

The File Manager tool, which is a part of our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel, allows you to administer all the files that you upload to your cloud hosting account without any difficulty. You may move files and whole folders by dragging-and-dropping them inside the account. You may upload content in the same manner - select a file/folder on your computer and drag it to your browser in which the File Manager is loaded. By right-clicking a file or a folder within your account, you may also access context menus with more complex options - you'll be able to set up or to unpack an archive, to create a password-protected area, to alter the UNIX permissions via a web interface or to edit the content with various editors without ever leaving the Control Panel – a code editor, an HTML editor or a plain text editor. We have also added help articles and video lessons, that you can access right from the File Manager to get more information about its capabilities.

To make managing your content a whole lot easier, you shall be able to organize it in ascending or descending order by size, name or last modified date.
