How can I restore the MySQL root user’s full privi

Question

I accidentally removed some of the privileges from my MySQL root user, including the ability to alter tables. Is there some way I can restore this user to its original state (with all privileges)?

UPDATE mysql.user SET Grant_priv = 'Y', Super_priv = 'Y' WHERE User = 'root';
# MySQL returned an empty result set (i.e. zero rows).
FLUSH PRIVILEGES ;
# MySQL returned an empty result set (i.e. zero rows).


#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'root'@'localhost'

Answer 1

i also remove privileges of root and database not showing in mysql console when i was a root user, so changed user by mysql>mysql -u 'userName' -p; and password;

UPDATE mysql.user SET Grant_priv='Y', Super_priv='Y' WHERE User='root';

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

after this command it all show database's in root .

Thanks
