Need help with reconfiguring HA

Hello,
My HA core instance wasn’t working at all so I have reinstalled it without a backup because I know that in core you cant restore back from a backup. But now do I have a complete empty HA. Also do I have copied the ‘old’ HA root folder to my PC so I thought that there everything in is. Is there a way to use that folder to restore my HA?

oopy the (hidden) folder .storage
and the yaml files you want to keep from root

I don’t know what makes you think that.

If you have your entire config folder, including all the hidden files and folders, you can copy that to your new install.

Yeah I did think that that maybe was a option. I have now a very much back but it doesn’t have anymore the energy usage history. Where are these located?

the energy is know showing up. Thanks
