If you follow the instructions here , everything will be all right. From this page:

Users who install the noinstall package can use the instructions in this section to manually install MySQL. The process of installing MySQL from the Zip archive is as follows:

  • Extract the archive to the desired installation directory
  • Create Parameter File
  • Choose MySQL server type
  • Start MySQL server
  • Default User Account Protection

To start a series

mysqld --console 

and after that do

 mysql -u root 

to start doing whatever you want.

Please note that MySql will function exactly as if you installed or configured it to run as a service. Your circuit is stored on disk. If you run it after you stop it, your previous data will still be there. Thus, it does not magically turn into a database in memory.

If you want to install the MySQL database as a service, you can use the following command.

mysqld.exe --install
