Alrigth thank you. realy appreciate the help
I'm having the same issue. mysql.exe is not in the shell bin. What do I have to download?
I've found various things to download on google but not sure which one is correct. Is this it? https://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-shell/8.0/en/mysql-shell-install-windows-quick.html I noticed it also doesn't contain mysql.exe
https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
custom install, install only mysql server
add
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin to your %PATH%
that was only one quick Google search away 😉thanks!
