How to set login to phpmyadmin for default user/password in wamp server?

I understand that I need to log in to wamp server in order to create a database. My problem is that the phpmyadmin page opens without asking me to log in. So, I presume that I am not logged in. If so, I do not know how to log out. I know this is so basic but I am stuck here. Thanks for any advice.

    The default username is "root"
    default password is '' (empty/blank).



    if u want to know the password
    go to wamp installation pathapps
    for example C:wampappsphpmyadmin2.10.1
    in this path u can fine the file named 'config.inc.php'
    open that file with any text editor and search for
    $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password']
    the password had been stored in this variable.

    What I can also recommend is downloading the latest phpMyAdmin from http://www.phpmyadmin.net.

    Then unzip the folder to C:wampphpMyAdmin-4.1.3-all-languages

    Then launch



        [http://localhost/phpMyAdmin-4.1.3-all-languages/index.php](http://localhost/phpMyAdmin-4.1.3-all-languages/index.php)
    now it should only ask you for username (root) and password (blank/none/empty)

    Just go to Wamp Directory on your window and check phpmyadmin in apps folder inside wamp.



    D:wampappsphpmyadmin4.1.14



    Open config.inc.php and go on line 28.



    Just put new password or remove it as per your need:




    /* Authentication type */



    $cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose'] = 'mysql wampserver';

    //$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';

    $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';

    $cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root';

    $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = '';

            Then unzip the folder to C:wampphpMyAdmin-4.1.3-all-languages

            Just go to Wamp Directory on your window and check phpmyadmin in apps folder inside wamp.



            D:wampappsphpmyadmin4.1.14



            Open config.inc.php and go on line 28.



            Just put new password or remove it as per your need:




            /* Authentication type */



            $cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose'] = 'mysql wampserver';

            //$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';

            $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';

            $cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root';

            $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = '';

            • Welcome on super user. Remember that to go to a new line (without leaving a line empty in the middle) you have to add 2 spaces at the end of the line. . <-- In this way.
