How to upgrade phpMyAdmin in XAMPP to latest, without affecting the database, settings, and files?

Answer 1

Also make sure you change the directory path to the current version in the C:\wamp\alias\phpmyadmin.conf file.

Example: first line in file

(old version): Alias /phpmyadmin "c:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin4.1.14/" to
(new version): Alias /phpmyadmin "c:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin4.6.1/".

I Was having a little trouble without this specification.
