Sorry for the delay in posting... A this point you have me stumped as to where your problem is. Did you try starting your bot "runas administrator"?

no i haven't don't even know where to start on that one. but im glad i have everything else up to par and im doing everything else right. the problem hasn't happened now for about a month. but running the bot in the mode you have mention what does that do to the bot and does it effect the way it works in game?

It does not affect how it runs in came, but gives it a bit more authority in the Windows OS is all.

ok the issue just happened today and i noticed my internet took a bit to start up but i went into MySQL and tried to log into the server like you suggested and this is what i got.

as you can tell i tried many times to get it to sign in and i even tried the dragon one as well and got the same results.
do you think this is happening because of something else going on with my computer ?

That would be because your MySQL application is not starting up most likely. Check your services and see if it is running.

ok and how would i go about do that ? could you explain please
thank you

Unfortunately, I am not a windows person. I would suggest perhaps going to the MySQL site and seeing what they have there for help with that on Windows.

ok it looks like the problem isnt going to go away it started to have the issue yet again so i think there is a issue with windows so correct me if im wrong if you could please
if i re-instal windows im going to have to re-instal the bot now would i have to do all the steps all over again down loading mysql and creating a data base and a server .
then take the back up that i have and re-instal that as well, or can i just re-instal mysql and put the back up in there after that

thanks again for your help and time so i dont screw things up.

You should be able to export your database from MySQL tools. Then after you reinstall ... import that to your MySQL. that way when you restart your bot, should come right up. I would also suggest that you keep a backup of your <bothome>\conf folder. It should keep you from having to resetup your bot from scratch.

If you reinstall windows, yes you will need to reinstall the Bot & MySQL. Then you can recover from the backups of the database and conf folder.
