Right–click context menus
Control all files with just a mouse–click
Most File Managers specify all of the activities which you can carry out within a file or directory on the top of the page. We believe that the latter isn’t intuitive enough. Using the File Manager, you have access to all of the file control options any time you right–click a file or directory. This method is likewise applicable for different files/folders.
It is possible to rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete just about any file or directory you decide on with only a click of the mouse.
Archive/Unarchive files
Control archives with merely a click of the mouse
The File Manager features an internal archive/unarchive option to help you to add substantial archives and extract them in to your web hosting account within seconds. The moment compressing a file or directory, you will be able to select the title for the archive that’ll be created as well as its extension – .ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ. At the same time, you’ll be able to archive current folders or files with only a mouse–click.
The archive/unarchive option provided by the File Manager allows you to handle huge files right from your Web Site Control Panel. No reason to employ any third party software such as an FTP client so as to upload a large file onto your website hosting account or download any kind of archive to your desktop.
Integrated file editors
Absolutely no third party applications are needed
We have integrated a number of file editors within the Web Site Control Panel to help you produce quick and easy changes to your files without needing to implement any third–party software. Inside the File Manager you will find a WYSIWYG editor that will help keep an eye on all the current changes which you create live, a code editor which includes syntax displaying for your .JS or .PHP files, along with a plain text editor for more expert users. All the changes you generate and save will be shown right away online.
You have access to the file editors when using the buttons near the top of the file table and also by right–clicking a certain file/folder.
A logical folder structure
Your files sorted in a simple to use way
All of the files in your cloud hosting account are arranged into directories. Every single host features its own primary folder, that uses the file structure which you have selected. In this way, it is really simple to control all your hosts from a single place without probability of getting lost or perplexed.
By default, you will see each of the hosts mentioned in a table and when you click once on a given host, you will observe the whole set of sub–folders and files pertaining to it. By clicking on two times, you will visit a webpage that is dedicated to that host exclusively. An alternative way to load the folder pertaining to a given host and to work with it exclusively, is by using the drop–down menu near the top of the main File Manager file table.

Quick & simple password protection options
The ultimate way to protect your information
There is one common path to protect a directory using a pass word – by creating an .htaccess file. If, however, you aren’t technically competent enough, you’ll have difficulties doing the work on your own.
