A File Manager software tool is present in all website hosting Control Panels. As the name implies, it is employed to manage the files in an account and all File Managers support a number of standard functions - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. Some Control Panels could provide more advanced capabilities also - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Although files could be uploaded and downloaded via an FTP client, the File Manager is used way more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it'll be for you to handle your presence online in its entirety. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's difficult to use can make it more aggravating and hard for you to manage your site content, particularly if you do not have previous experience.
