All web hosting accounts are handled through a Control Panel and irrespective of the brand of the latter, there's always a File Manager tool, which lets you look into the files which you have uploaded inside the Internet hosting account and to carry out basic operations with them, including moving, copying or deleting. Depending on the specific tool, there can be more advanced functions too, including control over permissions and archives. Many Control Panels are easier to use compared to others and so are their File Manager sections. As this is the primary tool that you will employ to manage your files, it's crucial to check in advance what options it provides and if it shall work for you, because a hard-to-use File Manager could be a burden and will make managing your web presence more challenging.
