File management: Access to your files via the web browser
File management allows you to edit, create, delete, copy or, in some other manner, manipulate all of the files in your installation via a normal web browser.
File management can hardly replace your local development environment and a good FTP program, but it is a strong tool if one, for example, is going to work with user rights on a file level or delete subdirectories with masses of files and additional subdirectories, both tasks can be rather horrible to perform via FTP.
In general, one can generally perform the same functions via file management as via SSH. The only significant difference is that there is no need to have an SSH client installed on the client machine.
