Please, I will appreciate information or guidance on how to display publicly, the total views on Wordpress posts via cpanel. Thank you.

*Most plugins do not show or record the past/previous views on such posts rather, only from when the plugin is installed.

I dont understand your last part. Is it through cPanel or just from your wordpress admin dashboard?
Also do you want to restrict the views to just yourself at the backend or you want visitors to see if at the Frontend too

"Is it through cPanel or just from your wordpress admin dashboard?"
Any. As far as every view ever recorded on a post can be seen publicly (frontend).

"Also do you want to restrict the views to just yourself at the backend or you want visitors to see if at the Frontend too"
I want visitors to see it publicly/frontend.

OK. I can give you process on how you'd go about this but mind you, the view will only work after you install the plugin. Initial views won't show as it would only call the get_post_view after we initiate the php function.

If that's OK by you, I can create a video tutorial on this and send to you when I'm back from work. That could br around 9pm

Thank you for your response and assistance but I really want the initial views to be included. Is this possible?

im sorry, that won't work. No plugin nor code will do that for you. It's like asking a person coming to your house for the first time to tell you how you've been living for the past years

I thought maybe via Cpanel, this might be possible especially as I believe that such records exists perhaps in the database.

Thank you.
