How to Create an Additional Web Disk Account in cPanel
You can use cPanel's login details to access your Web Disk. Additionally, you can create an extra account for accessing a specific directory on your account.
Steps to Create an Additional Web Disk Account
- Log in to your cPanel account.
- In the Files section, click on Web Disk.
- Under Create an Additional Web Disk Account, enter the details of the new account you wish to create:
- Username: Enter a username, such as folderx.
- Password: Enter your new password or click on Password Generator to generate a random password.
- Directory: You can leave it blank, which will allow access to the whole directory. Alternatively, enter the directory location, such as public_html/folderx. The user will only have access to the directory path /folderx.
- Permissions: Select your option.
Note: If you are using Windows OS, mark Enable Digest Authentication. However, if the server has an SSL certificate signed by a recognized certificate authority and you can make an SSL connection over port 2078, you do not need to enable this.
- Click on Create. You can now use the new login details to access your Web Disk account.
