Thanks Brian.
I run the suggested scripts but didn't solve the problem.
I need a user "Anonymous".

...this means that UserMerge Extension is no longer available
for user deletion; isn't it?

Hi, everybody,
I seem to have lost the user "Anonymous" which is the one with the user_id
= 0.
I say this because trying to delete a user with the extension "UserMerge"
I got this error:
"Cannot create an actor for a usable name that is not an existing user".
To be clear, the UserMerge Extension instructs to
merge (refer contributions, texts, watchlists, edit count of) a first
account A to a second account B
delete the first account A after the merge
….
if you omit the "New User" field (account B) then the extension
auto-populates the New User as "Anonymous", and ask you to confirm a merge
to Anonymous
So I went to check the "user" and "actor" tables where, actually,
the
Anonymous user doesn't exist.
Is it serious?
Everything else seems to be working fine to me...
