Overview

Since your website’s files will likely be in multiple different directories, it is important to know how to navigate to the directory that you wish to be in. You can only access the files in the directory that you are currently in so, changing directories is necessary to complete many tasks.


Steps

1 To access the FILE MANAGER, click on the icon above the words File Manager on the main screen of your cPanel interface.

2 To move to a specific directory (folder), click on the icon next to the directory’s name

3 To go back up to the previous directory you were in, click on Up one level

4 To go back to your home directory click on the ‘/’ before the name of the current folder

Troubleshooting

If you cannot figure out where you are, check the top of the File Manager to see your location. It will be next to (Current Folder).
