How to show .htaccess (hidden files) with the File Manager

2. Select Hosting Manager from the drop-down menu.
3. Enter username and password and click Log In.
4. On the Accounts page, click File icon or the [ v ] arrow symbol on the right side, and then click File Manager.
5. A Directory Selection box will prompt. Tick the box which says Show Hidden Files (dotfiles).
6. Click Go.
