I am using xampp 5.6.3
. Now I am planning to install xampp 5.6.14
. And I have many projects in my htdocs
folder. If I reinstall xampp
, will it contents inside htdocs
remain or will they be overwritten? Is there any way to reinstall xampp
and keep my projects safe?
UPDATE
All project related databases are inmysql
. Will those things get deleted too?
A database dump
is a must, htdocs folder will remain after you uninstall xampp but you might replace it on re installation.So I strongly recommend you not
to take the chance. Always take a backup. may be a tar/zip
of the htdocs
folder before uninstalling.
See this answer for a step by step answer on reinstalling xampp.
