what if we did the one click installation through cpanel

if we did the one click installation through cpanel how do we find the wordpress folder on our local computer or do we need to install it? do we still use Filezilla if we did the one click installation?

Hi Melissa, If you installed Wordpress through your cPanel account, the files will actually be located in your web hosting server and not on your computer, so in essence you would need an FTP client like Filezilla to connect to your web host via FTP and access those files.

Here is a link tutorial on connecting with Filezilla: Filezilla Client Tutorial
