So, I tried again, another install and was able to install, I used root, and let password blank for MySQL. I can start/stop apache, etc clicking on xampp icon and going in. I can connect to the server, and even get into phpMadmin. so far so good. But I logged into Joomla backend and there was nothing really. Front page looked empty too. I remember doing this before and there was content to get you started so it had the look of a website. I did something wrong I think.. here is a pic: Thank you for all other answers. I will try wrap my head around the difference of accessing Apache versus MySQL versus joomla itlself. used to sort of know how to do it, but I am getting older- not smarter, and I feel like the look of Joomla has changed? lol Thanks for your patience
