Remember:
If you need to upload files under user account or for any domain, then always login with that user account and use user account's File Manager area. DO NOT
upload user/domain files using root account's File Manager area because it will mix the file permissions.
Tips:
- For selecting multiple files, click and draw a selection rectangle with your mouse or pointing device or alternatively, hold down shift key and click the files you want to select.
- To upload files, click the upload button in the menu bar which will open up a pop-up. Now a file explorer can be used to selected the files you want to upload or you can drag-drop the files you want to upload too.
