as long I have files and and a folder explicitly named "files" I think my question was justified.
I read all the articles, there is some point where it is not clear.

What's the problem with the long topic?
On the contrary, invenio has been polite all the way.
As to "files", if the directory were the intended item, that would have been explicitly mentioned as the directory (or folder) files or as /files.

The problem with the "long" topic is that it's unnecessarily long and no progress has been made, and that not due to lack of effort on the part of those trying to offer support.

My suggestion:

The database backup of the 3.3.3 you made. Zip that and upload that in somewhere (with a password) and send me (or anyone else offering) the link in a PM.
I'll have a look at it and we'll take it from there. This offer is valid for an hour from time of this post (and not a minute longer as there are other activities scheduled).
Spelling is freeware, which means you can use it for free.
On the other hand, it is not open source, which means you cannot change it or publish it in a modified form.

thank you for the offer but I am not take it. As I mentioned multiple times, I can have it done for 5$. This is not what I want. I want to understand the process.

should I export it through phpmyadmin and import it into the new one? or what do you mean by copy?

Thank you

I copied it. Just out of curiosity, was not the same as export old one - import into new one?

What would be the next step?

It is the same but easier.
Now edit the config.php in the copied files to your new database.
