Access MySQL command line history in WinXP

I've installed MySQL v4.1 onto my WinXP and unfortunately now need to
reinstall my OS.

I need to access my mysql command line history but don't know how. I
know there's a .mysql_history file but that's just on Unix. Is there a
similar file in Windows? If not, how does mysql remember all the
commands? Where is it's buffer?

Also, the doskey /history command only gives a history of the cmd.exe
prompt so that's not what I want either.

Does anyone have any idea?

Any help would be really appreciated.

Many thanks.

Nat.

I have a mySQL database located on a remote host's server. I would like to schedule a task on my local Windows computer to retrieve a backup/dump of this remote database. I have contacted my host, and they indicated that the server is only open to the Internet via mySQL. Therefore, even if I did have access to that server's command line (which I don't) to create dumps via mysqldump, I would not be able to retrieve via FTP. Does...

Nevertheless, I'm always hearing about how their "phasing it out" or "getting rid of it". Because no-one owns up I can't...

OK, I'm officially frustrated. I had MySQL 4.0.18 running as a service on my WinXP laptop, along with MySQLAdministrator, and a new tool, DB Designer. Everything was working fine, and I was able to do a good test. Then I wanted to upgrade to MySQL 5.0. I completely uninstalled everything with the "Add/Remove Programs" utility in the Control Panel.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
