Accessing Web Disk and WebDav

Web disc (also known as WebDAV) is a drag-and-drop interface which allows you to access your website's files as if it were a local drive on your computer.

Notice, the same goal can be accomplished using FTP via window explorer. See the Related Article.

  1. Typical connection instructions:
  2. Login to cPanel and click the Web Disc icon.
  3. Scroll down and click the Access Web Disc button.
  4. Choose your operating system (the one you use on your personal computer).
  5. Scroll down and hit the Go button.
  6. Click the Save button.
  7. On your computer, hit Save, Open, and Run.
  8. You are now viewing website files from your personal computer.

The nice part is, you can now drag and drop files from your local drive to your website.
