Can I change only the address of my web-site?

I lost my previous web-site swedclub.ru

But I registered new at the address visitsweden.ru

Can I change only the address of my web-site to new in the Control Panel preserving all files?

Currently I can not find how to do it.

Add the domain as a parked domain/alias, then you can remove the original domain.

Or add it as a totally new domain, copy the files into the new folder, then delete the originals/original domain

Can’t you just rename the folder?

If the user adds the domain, deletes the auto-generated (dom)/htdocs, and renames swedclub.ru/htdocs to visitsweden.ru/htdocs?

I think this would work.

It all depends on how website is setup.
If pure html, renaming folder will likely work.
If it is WordPress, then this will apply

Yes. I added the new web-site address (the new domain) and setted up it as an alias to the absolete web-address on the hosting. It works now.

But I afraid if I will delete an absolete web-address (the absolete domain) then all files (include for the new address) will be deleted on the hosting or they will remain under the new domain?

Copying of files is not working between domains on the hosting or I can not find such possibility.

deleting the origional domain will not delete the files. If you go into the domain, it’ll tell you as such
