The name of the folder (which should not be posted publicly) (ie remain restricted to only those that are to have access to it) will itself have at least an includes folder as well as at least configuration.php as a file.
Once the folder is identified, the content that follows the above uri would be /YOUR_ADMIN where YOUR_ADMIN is the folder name/path discovered above.

So, if you find the folder is named "abcdefg", and if your domain was https://www.example.com, then you would log in to your Admin area using https://www.example.com/abcdefg

However, you will still use your FTP program to modify any .php files as necessary.
