Completely uninstalling mysql ?

[Wheeze201]

I've been doing alot of fiddling with mysql and now it's gone completely wrong.

Configuring gave me at first unable to start service and now i can't run the configuration because of a non-exsistant binary directory at mysql/bin.

It's really annoying

You can always manually remove the MySQL install folder and start over with configuring your MySQL.
Helped me also when it wouldn't start any more.

That clearly doesn't work.
Or else i wouldn't be asking for help if it were that obvious.

Control Panel --> Programs --> Uninstall MySQL --> ??? --> Profit

did you delete these folders when uninstalling:

-program files
-MySQL InnoDB Datafiles
-data folder

when i get that error is because i dont delete the data folder, so it doesnt completely uninstall

delete those the restart, if it doesnt work, sorry i dont know lol.

but dont get me wrong ive had that same error and it was because i didnt delete the data folder

Uninstall it the normal way then go to C:/program Files and find the Mysql folder then delete it.
