You can rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete every file or folder you choose with just a click of the mouse.

All of the files in your web hosting account are sorted into folders. Each and every web host features its own primary folder, which follows the file structure you have defined. By doing this, it is not difficult to manage all your hosts from one location with no probability of getting lost or baffled.

By standard, you will see all of the hosts conveniently contained in a table and if you mouse–click once on a specific host, you’ll see all of the sub–folders and files related to it. By clicking on two times, you are going to go to a page that is focused entirely on that host alone. A different way to open the folder associated with a given host and to work with it exclusively, is using the drop–down menu near the top of the main File Manager file table.
