A File Manager tool is found in all website hosting Control Panels. As the name implies, it is employed to manage the files inside an account and all File Managers support a variety of standard functions - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A number of Control Panels can provide you with more advanced features as well - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Though files could be uploaded and downloaded through an FTP client, the File Manager is used considerably 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 aggravating and hard for you to control your site content, particularly if you do not have previous experience.
