A File Manager tool is found in all hosting Control Panels. As the name implies, it is used to control the files inside an account and all File Managers support a variety of basic features - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A few Control Panels may offer you more complex functions too - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Even though files could be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is employed considerably more often, so the easier to use it is, the easier it will be for you to control your online presence in its entirety. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's not easy to use could make it more annoying and hard for you to manage the site content, particularly if you do not have previous experience.
