I'm trying to fresh install the latest version of MySQL (5.7.9) manually on Windows 7 64-bit.
When I download it from mysql.com I get the file "mysql-5.7.9-winx64.zip", but unlike previous versions it has no "data" folder and a near empty "my.ini" file.
Could someone more learned let me know what is going on with this?
You should check this link out Windows mysql 5.7.9 MSI installer or Community server download
Windows (x86, 32-bit), MSI Installer
Note: MySQL Installer is 32 bit, but will install both 32 bit and 64 bit binaries.
And AFAIK, C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7 is only created with a filled out my.ini file, on a vanilla install of mysql, only after you have installed mysql server. The zip file itself would not contain this since it is just the executables necessary to install the mysql server...

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.
I'm trying to install a mysql server on my win 10 machine. I've downloaded the installer from here, but when I open it, it finds an installed version of mysql server on my computer (which I thought I had uninstalled something like a month ago). I tried to remove it from the installer, but it fails when it reaches 50%, and I also cannot find any mysql file on my computer. Can anyone of you help me removing the thing I have on my computer to make a new fresh install on mysql server, please?
Thanks,

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
when i click on reconfigure it gives following screen
I'm trying to install mysql in windows 7 and I have downloaded mysql installer from https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/
I started installing it but after some time it gives the following error:
no compatible server found.
I searched a lot for this, however I'm not able to install mysql on my system. Please give me some suggestions.
Is there any other software that has dependency to install mysql?
when i click on add it gives following screen
download and install Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable. it worked for me
I too had the same issue. What i did was,
1- uninstall the msi community installer.
2- Install visual c++ 2019 Redistributer package (https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads) ([])
3- Now install MySql Workbench from (https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/)
NOTE: Download the Windows (x86, 64-bit), MSI Installer 8.0.20 35.6M
Download.
4- Now install the msi community installer that you've uninstalled in step 1
(Link:https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/8.0.html)
NOTE: Windows (x86, 32-bit), MSI Installer 8.0.20 420.6M
Download [For both 64 & 32 bit ] - (mysql-installer-community-8.0.20.0.msi)
Now the workbench will be added. Add the server from the installer and now we are good to go...
Thanks for the opportunity and knowledge
This error may be resolved by installing appropriate visual C++ version. for 5.7 its VC++ 2013 and for 8.0 its VC++ 2015.
After VC++ install rerun the installation and reinstall just server seperate. Configure it.
Then install any other tools like client etc,
(server installs with command line (Which was enough for my needs)
Steps:
Install MySQL Server from "MySQL Installer - Community" (already installed in your system.
While installing you would be asked to setup a server, so, just leave everything as it is and just put up a password and click next.
No after installation again you will see "MySQL Installer - Community". Then click "reconfigure" right in front of (see image in link below).
Then you will see the server in options. Just click it and enter password. (NOTE: let the username be "root", don't change it).
After doing all this MySQL will be installed.

I downloaded the zip file for Mysql 5.6.16, but there is no .exe file in the folder.
All the instructions online are saying install through .msi file.
How can i install and configure mysql 5.6.16 in windows 7 ??
Thanx in advance
As described in How to install MySQL on Windows 7?:
The installer installs the following software in your computer
a.) MySQL Server
b.) MySQL Connectors
c.) MySQL Workbench and sample
models
d.) MySQL for Excel
e.) MySQL Notifier
f.) MySQL for Visual
Studio
g.) Sample Databases
h.) Documentation
Download the installer here : http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/
There are two options available: (as on 31 Jan 2014 , the latest version is 5.6.16)
(i) mysql-installer-web-community-5.6.16.0.msi – 1.5MB
(ii) mysql-installer-community-5.6.16.0.msi – 250.8MB
I personally prefer the 2nd option. This helps me to keep the .msi file as backup in my computer. I can install MySQL whenever I need to
even if I am offline.
After downloading the 250 MB file, double click it to start the installation process. Now it is simple as installing any software on
windows 7.
Once you are done with the installation download the official document
Direct link for A4 size pdf –
http://downloads.mysql.com/docs/refman-5.6-en.a4.pdf
Now click the “MySQL Notifier” in programs menu. The Notifier icon appears in the task bar (right bottom). Right click on the small red
icon and select “start” the server option.
Click the “MySQL Workbench” in the programs menu. Start creating databases/schemas/tables/SQL scripts.
