MySQL Administrator :: 2.2 Installing Under Windows
MySQL Query Browser runs on recent 32-bit Windows NT based operating systems, including Windows 2000, XP, and 2003.
MySQL Administrator is installed through the use of a Windows Installer
(.msi) installation package, which can be used to
install the MySQL Administrator on all Windows operating systems. The
MSI package in contained within a ZIP archive named
mysql-administrator-,
where version-win.msiversion indicates the
MySQL Administrator version.
The Windows Installer engine was updated with the release of Windows XP; those using an older version can reference this Microsoft Knowledge Base article for information on upgrading to the latest version.
To install MySQL Administrator, right-click on the MSI file and select
. The installation will begin
automatically after the installer prompts you for your installation
preferences. During installation, you can choose if you want the
installer to place a shortcut in the Start menu,
and/or an icon on the desktop.
If you are having problems running the installer, you can download a
ZIP file without an installer as an alternative. That file is called
mysql-administrator-.
Using a ZIP program, unpack it to a directory of your choice. You
may want to create shortcuts to
version-win-noinstall.zipMySQLAdministrator.exe for your desktop or quick
launch bar.
Unless you choose otherwise, MySQL Administrator is installed in
C:\, where
%PROGRAMFILES%\MySQL\MySQL Administrator
1.0\MySQLAdministrator.exe%PROGRAMFILES% is the default directory
for programs on your machine. For example, this directory might be
C:\Program Files or
C:\programme.
