how do i delete mysql database?

Well some how after I installed mw_052_053_alpha2. (before i did, i installed their latest..so im going to try to install old one first, then new one on top). Before I did this, I never crashed zoning into any newbie zones, now on char select, no matter what city...I crash.

does anyone know the code to delete a mysql database?

Browse to C:\mysql\data and delete the folder of the database whatever you named it.

Make sure MySQL is off though otherwise it will not let you delete it.

The proper method is to 'drop' it, e.g. launch a command prompt:

mysql -u root

drop database <your db> ;
