MySQL5.6 on Windows installation failed: String is not recognized as a valid DateTime

A date/Time format error occurred while installing MySQL5.6.21 on the win7,32 bit, as shown in:

The error description is: String is not recognized as a valid DateTime.

Here is the workaround:

The installation package recognizes the format of the date/time format for the United States, so you need to temporarily modify the system's date/time format:

1. Open the Control Panel
2. Navigate to: Clock, Language, and region (clocks, languages and regions)
3. Open: Region and language->change The date, time, or number format
(Region and Language change date/time and number format)
4. The modified format is: 中文版 (United States) (English (US)
5. Wait for the installation to complete ...
6. Change the format back to the original format (I am here: Chinese (simplified, PRC))

Complete!
