A File Manager software tool is present in all web hosting Control Panels. As the name indicates, it is used to manage the files in an account and all File Managers support a range of primary features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Certain Control Panels can offer more advanced functions too - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files can be uploaded and downloaded through an FTP client, the File Manager is employed far more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it'll be for you to manage your presence online in its entirety. The opposite is also true - a File Manager which is not easy to use may make it more annoying and challenging for you to control your site content, specifically if you lack previous experience.
