# About XAMPP Fixer

XAMPP Fixer is a script created in C# which fixes the common "Error: MySQL shutdown unexpectedly." error from XAMPP.

# What does it do?

XAMPP Fixer performs the following actions:

* [OPTIONAL] Creates a backup of existing database files in case of failure.

    * The backup will be created at `\xampp\mysql\data-backups\data-CURRENT_UNIX_TIMESTAMP`

* Renames `\xampp\mysql\data` to `\xampp\mysql\data-temp`.

* Copies `\xampp\mysql\backup` to `\xampp\mysql\data`.

* Moves required database files from `\xampp\mysql\data-temp` back to `\xampp\mysql\data`, excluding a few files, such as `mysql`, `performance_schema`, `phpmyadmin`, and `test`.

* Deletes the temporary directory `\xampp\mysql\data-temp`

# Why not do this manually?

I've done this manually each time XAMPP broke, but after some time it gets repetitive, so I've created this script.
