5.7.6 after the 64-bit ZIP package is downloaded after the decompression is not the data directory.
Go to the extracted Bin directory: (I use PowerShell)
Initialize the data directory (randomly assign a password, write it down)
. \mysqld--initialize --console
Installation Services (auto-start service, install only, do not start)
. \mysqld--install
--install-manual is manual start,--remove is uninstall service
Start
net start MySQL
Initialize security settings
. \mysql_secure_installation.exe
The old password, the new password, confirm the new password, delete the anonymous account, disable root remote access, delete the test database, update the permissions table.
Client Login
./mysql-u Root-p
Enter a new password
Complete
