I tried restore database but not working.

'Not working' does not mean anything. Please be as complete in the description. Are you getting error(s)? Which one(s)?
Does the second method (attach) work?

Create a backup in sql server express and restore in sql server.
Copy the file (mdf) and attach the copy using ssms to the other server.
