Having trouble migrating your Wordpress site to another host?

The problem arose when moving the Wordpress site to another hosting and changing the domain name. When I transferred the database in a text file, I changed all the paths from the old domain to the new one. All content is displayed normally except for PICTURES ! For some reason, some of the pictures are displayed, and some are not visible, although the path for them is spelled correctly. Can anyone come across? What could be the problem?
PS I uploaded the pictures manually because the name was in Russian and because of this I could not upload it to the hosting in another way

I copy the same instructions for everyone who asks the same thing - "how to solve WordPress problems after a manual transfer":
In the modern world, WordPress does this:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/ - put a plugin.
We go into it, click "Create package". Next, next, next.
We get installer.php and archive. Upload them to a new hosting (domain, folder - it doesn't matter). Run site.com/installer.php. Enter a new username and password for the database.
Next, next, next.
At the end, follow the instructions on the screen - log in to the vp, resave the permalinks. Delete the installer files and the archive.
Everything. Everything has been moved. No problems with paths, etc.

Thanks for the way! But what if the site takes up 2GB of data? Plugin cannot create archive.
