there is no database set up option in my php myadmin. in fact it won't even let me login. or create a login....it also wouldn't work when i moved the www folder into websites and made the directory changes like she did. this must be a very old video. i don't know how to proceed. here are the url's for the screenshots i took for this question: https://pasteboard.co/H17LcE2.png and: https://pasteboard.co/H17LQDT.png don't know how to tag or i'd tag the teacher or Alena Hanigan....i'm so confused and frustrated

For any screenshot, please upload via a service like https://pasteboard.co/ and give us the link.
Your phpMyAdmin is probably preconfigured and working out of the box. The default user is root and the password is blank (empty).
Don't worry about this for your local development environment.
I enjoy using Adminer.php instead of setting up phpMyAdmin.
If you change your public root directory, you need to restart Wamp, so that might be it.

7,363 Pointsok so the root with blank password worked....and there is the database screen she had....but i still can't move the www file to websies like she said to do.

9,244 PointsCould you share your httpd.conf file ?
You can easily put it on Pastebin
Edit : They want you to move your projects to C:\websites because you will be able to switch easily between projects.
