I had created a project in asp.net in visual studio on my laptop then I pushed that whole project on GitHub. After that, I formatted my laptop then installed visual studio 2017. I downloaded that pushed project and tried to run on my current visual studio
but I am unable to understand how to restore old database. I can't see my old tables. How do I get those tables? Please help me to run this project. Is there any way to run this project? Any link related to my problem will be helpful.
What old database are you talking? Access, MS SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle or what? Most likely, the database is lost if you didn't know how to preserver the database if you didn't off load it/back it up to an offline media device like USB, and you formatted
the HD.
