    Mysql is a command line utility, not something you double-click to open in a window.
    To make it clear:
    mysql.exe – command prompt utility to manage your database
    mysqld.exe – server process
    Sounds to me like mysql server is started. Trying to start another mysqld won’t do anything except tell you that the port is busy
    To start the utility, you must open a terminal command prompt in Windows (Start > Run > cmd.exe) then type
    mysql.exe -u -p
    then it will prompt you for password to login and administer your databases. If you get an error about port 3306 then you will also have to specify port 10061 to connect to.
