All of the files in your hosting account are neatly sorted into folders. Every web host has its own main folder, that follows the file hierarchy which you have defined. This way, it is very easy to control all of your current hosts from a single location without any chance of getting lost or baffled.

By standard, you will see all the hosts listed in a table and if you mouse–click once on a given host, you will see all of the sub–folders and files related to it. By clicking two times, you will visit a page which is dedicated to that host alone. Another way to open the folder associated with a specific host and to use it exclusively, is by using the drop–down menu at the top of the primary File Manager file table.
