How to install MySQL on Windows 7

(Note: for this tutorial I’m using MySQL 5.6.12.2)

1. Go to https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/ and select “MySQL Community Server“;

2. Select “Windows (x86, 64-bit), MySQL Installer MSI” and press “Download” Button;
3. On the new page, select again “Windows (x86, 32-bit), MSI Installer” and download the installer package;
4. When the download completes, run the installer;
5. On setup type choose “Server Only”;
6. In “Server Configuration Type” window, if using the computer for other tasks too, choose “Development Machine”;
7. Now, a very important step and most users are failing on this: On “Root Account Password”, enter a password that
you will remember because you will need it later. Write it down somewhere, just to be sure. The password is case
sensitive!
8. One final step is configure to start the MySQL server as a service, which means that it will start when your computer
starts so you don’t need to worry about it later.

9. That’s it!
