deletes user

It used to work fine, but now after the reset it is impossible to enter the site admin panel

It works but it deletes wp_users on some cases...

Well, it works... but if the wordpress database has a diferent prefix it also deletes wp_users. In my case was w7_users and deleted all users. I guess it works fine if the prefix is default wp_users
