Imported content not showing but creates a new virgin site - help

Hi; I’ve managed historically to take a live copy of my site successfully into Local by Flywheel (I’m self hosted).

Today I’ve followed same steps (wp-content fodler & files & database; zip and drop in). It opens up a ‘Which language screen’ and before I know it I have a ‘virgin’ site! Now what I want; what do I need to do to get the content I’ve had to date to be there.

I’ve limited tech abiity - so if you need logs or something - please direct me exactuly to how to get them

Thanks
Gerry
