**Why Change File and Folder Permissions in cPanel?**
*Changing file and folder permissions in cPanel is crucial for maintaining the security and functionality of your website.* Understanding how to manage these permissions can help prevent unauthorized access, ensure that your files are properly read, written, or executed, and maintain the overall health of your website.
**Prerequisites**
*Before proceeding, ensure you have access to your Cpluz hosting account and the cPanel control panel.* You should also be familiar with basic file management and navigation within cPanel.
**Step 1: Navigate to the File Manager**
*To access the File Manager, log in to your cPanel account and locate the Files section. Click on the File Manager icon.*
**Step 2: Navigate to the File or Folder**
*Once in the File Manager, navigate to the file or folder for which you want to change the permissions.*
**Step 3: Change the Permissions**
*Right-click on the file or folder and select ‘Change Permissions.’* A pop-up window will appear, displaying the current permissions and allowing you to adjust them.
**Understanding File and Folder Permissions**
File and folder permissions consist of three types: read (r), write (w), and execute (x). These permissions can be applied to the file or folder owner, group, and others (everyone).
– **Read (r)**: Allows users to view the file or folder’s contents.
– **Write (w)**: Allows users to modify the file or folder’s contents.
– **Execute (x)**: Allows users to run the file as a program or access the folder’s contents.
**Step 4: Adjust Permissions**
*Adjust the permissions according to your needs, taking into account the implications of each permission type and the user group involved.* For example, you may want to grant read and write permissions to the file owner, but only read permissions to the group and others.
**Step 5: Save Changes**
*Once you’ve adjusted the permissions, click ‘Save’ to apply the changes.*
