Delete files or folders in my Web Hosting (cPanel) account

Use cPanel's File Manager to delete individual files or folders from your Web Hosting (cPanel) account.

Note: It's a good idea to create a backup of your website before deleting files or directories.

Warning: Make sure you don't need a file or folder before you delete it, or your website may stop working as expected.
  1. Go to your GoDaddy product page.
  2. Under Web Hosting, next to the Web Hosting (cPanel) account you want to use, select Manage.
  3. Under Websites, select File Manager for the domain you want to use.
  4. In the cPanel File Manager, select the file you want to delete.
  5. At the top, select Delete.
  6. (Optional) Select Skip the trash and permanently delete the files.
  7. Select Confirm.
