The "Windows Essentials" version of the MySQL server has a GUI
installation and configuration utility (the Configuration Wizard) which
greatly simplifies the whole process of setting up a new server.
You need to download the "Windows Essentials" version of the software,
and not the "Without installer" version. Do yourself a favour, don't
make life more difficult for yourself.
