A File Manager tool is found in all web hosting Control Panels. As the name shows, it's employed to command the files in an account and all File Managers support a variety of standard capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Several Control Panels can provide more complex capabilities as well - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Though files may be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is used way more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it shall be for you to handle your presence online as a whole. The opposite is also true - a File Manager which is not easy to use can make it more irritating and complicated for you to handle your site content, especially if you lack previous experience.
