When i start up phpMyAdmin it asks for a username and password,and i never created one for phpMyAdmin and it doesnt say how to make one.

i tryed using the database from my site as the username and my password as the pass,but it didnt work.

im new to this

Depending on the version of XAMPP you can enter phpMyAdmin by entering root as the user and then leave the password blank and click on Go.

The default location of C:\xampp\readme-en.txt file under "A matter of security (A MUST READ!)" has the instructions to set a password for user root in phpMyAdmin and the MySQL combo.

http://localhost/security is the best place to start for this process.

i tryed everything but it still wont work.

it keeps giving me a error saying "Login without a password is forbidden by configuration (see AllowNoPassword)"

and i set AllowNoPassword to false,but its still giving me the error =\
