Answer 1

The same problem happened with me also, nothing worked... I first deleted the service (in my case MySQL80 and MySQL) by command:

sc delete MySQL80
sc delete MySql

and then reinstalled MySQL. Mine was MySQL 8.0. And then everything was back to normal.

Answer 2

mysqld --initialize

Run the above after the install command. Then try to start the service - that should work.

Answer 3

You also might have accidentally added some wrong text in my.ini file. Make sure no invalid character is added at the beginning on the file.

Answer 4

This error happened in my case when secure-file-priv was pointing to unexistent folder, make sure it exists and readable.

The line of code example in my.ini: secure-file-priv="D:/MySQL/uploads"

Answer 5

Nothing was working for me but then I checked here. I ran that command qc sc mysql57 and copied the value of BINARY_PATH_NAME from it. After that I checked this and changed the value of lower_case_table_names from 0 to 2 in my.ini file. Then in the command prompt, I ran this command - << BINARY_PATH_NAME >> --install-manual. After that, I started the MySQL57 service and it worked.
