In this video we will install MySQL on windows. The process is very simple. In this video I have selected the to install the FULL software. If you are planning to use MySQL in your project then I will suggest you to go with the Full install.

Then in the installation process you will be asked to set the root user password.
I generally prefer the "root" as the admin user name and "root123" as the admin password.
So set your password accordingly.

If you want to download MySQL Installer then here is the link
