A File Manager tool is available in all web hosting Control Panels. As the name shows, it's employed to command the files inside an account and all File Managers support a number of standard capabilities - browsing, moving, copying and deleting files. A number of Control Panels could provide more complex features too - changing file and folder permissions or creating and unpacking archives. Even though files may be uploaded and downloaded with an FTP client, the File Manager is used much more often, so the simpler to use it is, the easier it shall be for you to manage your online presence altogether. The opposite is also true - a File Manager that's not easy to use could make it more frustrating and hard for you to manage the site content, specifically if you don't have previous experience.
