Deleted WP Folder to Start over (4 posts)

    I deleted my WP folder through my FTP client, in an attempt to fix some corrupted files on my blog. When I upload the original WP folder, and visit my www."/wp-admin", it doesn't prompt me to register a new account, but my old account doesn't work. I'm pretty confused and feel like it's something to do with my service provider, but am having trouble figuring out. I tried making a new SFTP account to put the files on but it just opens up the old one?

    ahh ..

    you need to drop the tables in the database as well.

    Why are you uploading the 'original WP folder'? Do you want to start all over and install WP again, or are you trying to salvage some of the old content?

    You deleted trying to fix some files on your blog. Have you firstly determined whether the issues you are having on-site is because of corrupted files or corrupted database tables?
