 * I am unable to Re-install WordPress because my host say that this is a WordPress
   problem. Now I only have two solutions either to re-install (same version) manually
   or to change to new host.
    I have decided to re-install (the same version) manually.
 * In Codex i could not find a section which describes on how to re-install (same
   version) manually. Can anyone let me know how to do it or provide me a link?
 * Till now have completely replaced “wp-includes” folder with the fresh package(
   of the same version).
 * Is it safe to replace “wp-admin” folder completely?
 * Thanks.

 * you may try downloading WordPress again and replace your copies of everything**
   EXCEPT** the wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory with fresh copies.
   This should replace your core files without changing your content and settings
   in wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory.
