Install MySQL on Windows - In Ubuntu! Running MySQL directly in Windows has never been easier! In 2016, Microsoft released the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) which allows us to run Linux binaries natively within Windows. At first, this was a developers feature that required a fair amount of effort to test, but today the entire process has been completely simplified. Manual Installation Step 1: download MySQL. Step 2: extract the files. Step 3: move the data folder (optional). Step 4: create a configuration file. Step 5: test your installation. Step 6: change the root password. Step 7: Install MySQL as a Windows service.
How to Install the MySQL Database Server on Your Windows PC - Installing MySQL Open the MySQL Server download page. Click the bottom Download option. Scroll down and click No thanks, just start my download. Double-click the setup file. Click Yes when prompted. Check the 'I accept the license. Go to your downloads folder where you can see the mysql-installer-community file, right click on that file and click Install option. Step 5: This window configures the installer, in the middle, it may ask you for permissions to change your computer settings or firewall confirmation, you can accept and then it will take a few seconds to configure the installer.
I am trying to install MySQL on a Windows 10 PC. I downloaded the installer package and followed those steps
- Went to https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/
- clicked on 'MySQL Installer'
- Scrolled to Generally Available(GA) Releases section
- Clicked on 'Windows (x86, 32-bit), MSI Installer' (mysql-installer-community-5.7.21.0.msi) and it started the download.
- Once the download was complete, I double clicked on the installer and it gave a usual pop-up for any installation like,'Do you want this app to make changes to your device?' after clicking on 'yes' for the answer to this question, it shows 'Please wait while Windows configures MySQL-Installer-community' like below screenshot.
And then it keeps showing this installation progress bar for a very long time. Like more than 7-8 hours and the installation never completes
So it seems something is wrong as I don't think MySQL installation needs this long time. I tried to restart my computer and then delete any files related to MySQL from my computer and then started the whole process of installation again. But no luck yet
Anyone has any suggestion on this or did anyone face this kind of issue before? If so, is there a fix or a work around for this?

ok. So finally this is how I resolved my issue. And I found the solution at https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=82004 . The solution to this problem is to close an open 'Windows installer' (the one using 0 memory and CPU) via task manager and the installation should begin running as expected.

Alternative solution: Use an administrator command prompt to run the MySQL installer on Windows 10. Details:
(Note: if you have any problems in the following steps, you can try to restart your computer. Then restart the steps.)
- Right-click the Start/Windows icon in the bottom-left corner of Windows.
- Click: Windows PowerShell (Admin).
- A window asks: Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device? Click: Yes.
- Change to the directory with the MySQL installer. For example, if you downloaded the MySQL installer, type something like:
cd C:Usersmy_usernameDownloads
(Note: To save some typing, you can type a few characters, and then press the tab key, to make Windows show you various auto-completion options.)
- Run the MySQL installer. Type something like the following command---make sure to include the period and backslash at the beginning---and press Enter.
.mysql-installer-community-8.0.11.0.msi
Note: The idea of using an administrator command prompt came from John Geffe, in the link below, which was cited in the answer written by the original poster (user8425592):
Bug #82004 MySQL Installer freezes during 'Please wait while Windows configures...' phase

To get past this problem I had to run the .msi installer from an the Administrator command prompt. Hopefully this helps someone in the future.

John Geffe: Thanks! Your note on installing as an administrator seems to have taken care of the problem.

Go to the link you provided (the first one) and try installing MySql Workbench. That is the version that is commonly used, and one that I verified works in Windows 10. Here is the link: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/
Obviously, make sure you choose the right architecture, have the correct permissions to install software, and have enough space on your hard drive, or on the machine you are installing to.

Another thing that worked for me was running the installer in compatibility mode for previous version of Windows. You can try that as well.

- Select
Windows Powershell
again on sub-menu - Type in
cd
(to change to your .msi folder) - Type
.xxxxx.msi
(this is the installer file name)
All good.

Once you install the above package run the installer again and do the steps. You will be able to install the mysql-installer-community-5.7.21.0 for 64 bit windows 10

closing Windows Installer instances using 0 memory and CPU helps me to get past this problem.

For me on Window-10 machine, there was a problem with the 'mysql-connector-net-8.0.11.msi'. I was not able touninstall this and hence all my subsequent efforts to install MySQL were failing. I did the following to overcome this issue.
- Re-installed 'mysql-connector-net-8.0.11.msi' Get it here and used the 'Repair' option
- Installed the 'mysql-installer-web-community-8.0.11.0.msi'
Mysql Windows Installer 64 Bit
These two things solved my problem. Hope this helps.

this did the trick for me: https://ao.gl/mysql-community-server-msi-installer-hangs-on-windows-10/
1) run cmd (commandline) as Administrator2) cd to your location that you downloaded the .MSI to3) run the “msiexec” commandline tool with option “/i” as follows:4) msiexec /i [replace with file name]5) example: msiexec /i mysql-installer-community-5.7.20.0.msi
