Install MySQL Database setup password

After installing the MySQL database for the Windows platform, the system has already generated the license table and account by default, and you do not need to execute the mysql_install_db script to generate the account and the appropriate permission permission table as you would on UNIX platforms. However, if you do not install MySQL in MSI format, you will need to manually add a new password to the root account after installation, because the default root does not turn on password protection, if you do not re-give the root account password, many non-native connections will not succeed.
Method 1: With the Set password command, the specific update password steps are as follows:
1

C:>mysql-u Root

Mysql>set password for ' root ' @ ' localhost ' =password (' newpasswd ');

Mysql>set password for ' root ' @ '% ' =password (' newpasswd '); This section is optional
With the above settings, root password will be changed to newpasswd This completes the root password setup.
Method 2: Use Mysqladmin
1
mysqladmin-u root Password "Newpass"
If Root has already set a password, use the following method
1
mysqladmin-u root password Oldpass "Newpass"
Method 3: Edit the user table directly with update
