6. In the **Actions** column is a three-dot icon. You can click the three-dot icon, and then click an action:

   * **Download**: Use this option to download the file to your local computer.
   * **Copy link:** Use this option to obtain a full URL to the file or folder (for example, [https://example.wpdns.site/index.php](https://example.wpdns.site/index.php)).
   * **Delete**: Use this option to delete the file.
7. To search for a file, in the **Search Files** text box type the filename (or partial filename).
8. To upload a file to your website, click **Upload**.
9. To create a new file or folder, click the three-dot icon next to **Upload**, and then click **Create Folder** or **Create File**.
10. Initially, the File Manager only lists 10 files at a time. To display more files, scroll to the bottom of the page, click **10 per page,** and then click **20 per page** or **50 per page**.
