MYSQL + Win32 = Difficulties

Hello,

I've a newbie to MySQL. I've installed it on Windows and assigned a
password to the root user. Now when I log in I do the following:

C:\mysql\bin>my sql -u root -p
Enter password: *****

But all I get is:

ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost ' (Using password:
YES)

I can't seem to find an answer as to why i'm hitting this problem. Can
someone please explain?

Many thanks in advance.

I want to learn MySQL. I started reading the book MySQL by Paul DuBois, second edition. I have the option of downloading and installing a copy of MySQL on my computer (PC) or use MySQL provided by my ISP. The question is how do I use/reach MySQL on my ISP's server? It appears easy enough to setup the database usernames etc. since the setup and maintenance are done through an interface. In the book there is a sample database that I am...

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,...
