Importing a Zotero library after restting my computer

Hi, I've just resetted my computer and had to redownload Zotero. Now my Zotero is empty and I want to import my old library into it. How can I import it into my new Zotero?

attached is screenshot of the backup I had made: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ySDJ_W4mfnGadnIPSal_ZRplsEvhdvdm/view

Close Zotero, name that folder "Zotero", and place it in your home folder.

Thank you so much, I did that but the files still do not appear in Zotero. Do you have an idea why?

You either copied the wrong files or you put them in the wrong place. See Locating Missing Zotero Data.
