For security purposes, we recommend that you disable navigation in the directory on your website

so that you cannot see the files/pastes of your website.

First you need to access your cPanel

**Step 1**

After accessing your cPanel, go to the Files section and search for the item "File Manager"

**Step 2**

You can disable navigation in the directory in question by adding the line below to your .htaccess file:

1. Options -Indexes

**Next, you will see this other fabric:**

Then just click on Save to change, on the top edge directly of your fabric.

**Step 3**

If you cannot find your .htaccess files, they may be set to "**hidden files**" and just check the option to show hidden files in your manager, following these steps:

Go to the top bar of the file manager and click on "Settings"
