xampp - phpmyadmin non stop loading

Question

At the start, when I deal with my project, it has no problem at all. But after I insert a database it has problems, my phpmyadmin keeps loading non-stop.

I've tried to uninstall and reinstall, it can function normally but once I put my backup folder-mysql data folder, it will become non stop loading again. It does not show errors or failed to connect to localhost, just keeps non stop loading, Us there any other way than manually inserting back database or how do I fix it?

Currently using windows 11, xampp 8.2.12

Answer 1

From the way I read it, you are trying to physically copy a database into the mysql folders.

It doesnt work like that. It can be done, I have done it, but its not easy.

You are meant to backup the original database and then restore it here.
