I exported all the tables from phpmyadmin and imported the database to my database at my xamp server.

after that i downloaded all the wordpress files from my old hosting and transferred them to my theme in folder.

Finally i updated the database username and password in wp-config.php and also change the

define('WP_DEBUG', false);

to

define('WP_DEBUG', true);

But when i preview my website it shows blank white screen.

Moreover,I want to say I make new folder in htdocs folder and put the wordpress files init and then make a new folder in theme folder(sub folders of htdocs) and past my all theme files in it.

Blank Screen can appear due to several reasons .

1 ) Remove whitespaces in your code.

2 ) Please check is there any error in your code , once due to metabox code error i had same issue.

3 ) Export database then try to replace your domain with the current localhost domain/or which ever you want using some editor (sublime/brackets/etc). Then Import db .

To expand slightly on SJP's answer - a common cause of this is the functions.php file in your theme.

Make sure the first line has no whitespace at the start and the end of this file.

Option1: Check you log file

Option 2: Go to wp-config.php, set WP_DEBUG to true and see what happens.

Option 3: deactivate your all plugin. Once you do that, go back to your /wp-content/ folder and rename “plugins.deactivate” back to plugins.

Thanks
