A large number of File Managers include all of the actions that one can conduct over a file or folder at the top of the webpage. We think that this isn’t user–friendly enough. Using the File Manager, you can get all of the file administration choices when you right–click a file or folder. This option is likewise valid for numerous files/folders.

You’ll be able to rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete any file or directory you select with simply a click of the mouse.

Thanks to the in–built archive/unarchive option, the File Manager lets you deal with huge files without the need to use FTP. It is simple to pack a folder into a small size by clicking on the Compress button or gain access to the belongings in an archived directory through the Extract button. When compressing a folder or multiple files, it will be easy to decide on the archive extension (.ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ) and then the name of the archive file.

We’ve incorporated a set of file editors in the Web Hosting Control Panel to help you to make quick and easy alterations for your files without the need to use third–party applications. Within the File Manager you’ll find a WYSIWYG editor that can help you check all the recent changes which you make in real time, a code editor that includes syntax displaying for one’s .JS or .PHP files, as well as a plain text editor for more competent customers. Any changes you create and keep will be shown at once on the web.

You can access the file editors when using the buttons near the top of the file table as well as by right–clicking any file/folder.

When you are handling a number of sites at the same time, it’s crucial for you to have every little thing sorted out. With many other File Managers, updating a great number of sites in the same web hosting account is extremely tricky. With our File Manager, you will find that it’s actually rather easy. Each site does have its own directory, which you can at once identify, and all the files related to the specific web site are situated there.

And then to make things so much easier, you will find there’s a drop–down navigation from which it’s easy to pick on exactly which host you would like to work in the File Manager. Our smart system will take you there in seconds.

The vast majority of web File Managers are slow–moving and difficult to apply. They feature reduced options and are not really convenient–to–use. We strive to change that with the American Patriot Hosting File Manager. It was meant to be time and effort saving and also to look like a product you already know – the File Manager on your personal computer.

All its features, the drag’n’drop file upload solutions, the right–click context menus, the in–built file editors, etc. exist for 1 purpose – to help make controlling your web site(s) much simpler.

It is easy to handle many files concurrently while using the multi–selection capability of the American Patriot Hosting File Manager. All you need to do is press the Control key and click on the files or directories that you would like to select.

There’s a single typical technique to secure a folder using a password – by creating an .htaccess file.
