I'm using MAMP PRO 3.2.2 for Windows and need to upgrade the current MySQL version (5.5) to 5.7. Is there a way to do this in Windows?
Unfortunately it appears the only solution is updating MAMP. Which is a problem for me because the newest MAMP appears unstable (shutting servers on and off causes overlapping ports). I wish there was as I prefer MAMP 3.3.1.

Our application database schema is compatible with MySQL 5.7. A new team member accidentally installed MySQL 8.0.22 on Windows 10 using the MSI installer. The uninstall of version 8.0.22 was successful. However, the subsequent install of version 5.7.32 insists on re-installing version 8.0.22 components. How can version 8.0.22 be cleanly uninstalled to enable a correct 5.7.32 install?
As it turns out, it looks like MySQL implemented an MSI installer that can lay down bits from multiple releases. In the Setup Type phase, you can choose which release to install. As such, withdrawing this question accordingly.
When I am trying to re-install MySQL Community Servers 8.0 on Windows 10, it is giving me the option just to update it and not to install it, although I have already deleted all the previous MySQL packages from my computer so that I can re-install it from scratch.
I need to run the 5.7 server and the 8.0 server. Not necessarily at the same time, but i need them both installed. I've installed 5.7 and now I can't install 8.0 CE Server.
Downloaded MSI installer from here https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/8.0.html
It offer to update Connector/Python and that's it.
What am i doing wrong?
Found it. The installer is just confusing. For other newbies, here's what i learned:
Start the installer and you see:
Select Products to Upgrade....Connector Python....
Cancel that, and you see
List of products already installed
Note that Server 8.0 is not there. Click "Add" on the right. And that's it!
I am struggling to install MySQL 5.7 on Windows 10 after a clean removal of MySQL 8.0. The installer defaults to the version 8.0.12, with no way for me to change it.
When I run the installer (which has the version number 5.7.23.0), I am prompted to the following screen:
... despite the fact that this installer is (supposedly) for specifically the version 5.7.
I am unfamiliar with the manual installation process, so I was wondering if someone could help me install MySQL 5.7 on my PC (preferably all the other MySQL products such as the Connector and the Workbench as well). I've been trying to follow the instructions on the official documentation, but I stopped because I had no idea what I was doing.
I removed my MySQL 8.0.11 installation
Then I removed all the MySQL folders in the program and data folders
I disabled the gateway
Then started the installer for version 5.7.24 and that was oke.
First download all requirements and install them first
Then the installation was done. At the Installation screen, the status was ready to download, but I ignored it first and then I enabled the gateway again and the installation was fine.
At the installation screen it was clearly that version 5.7 would be installed. It only installed some 8.0 products (like the Shell, Router, connectors etc).
After checking, i've got Workbench 8 but MySQL 5.7.24
I installed mysql using .dmg, and then I realized I already have mysql installed. Now I have two versions, and I would like to keep the one that was shipped with OSX.
Is there a way to do it and how?
