Setup Environment Variable for MySQL 8 Database in windows 10 & Windows 11

In this video tutorials, we will learn how to customize the PATH for MySQL 8 database server. If we want to directly (without using MySQL bin folder path) access MySQL 8 database server via Windows command prompt, then we must create MySQL database shortcut. To make it easier to invoke MySQL programs, we can add the path name of the MySQL bin directory to Windows system PATH environment variable. Lets learn how to do that step by step.
In this video we will also fix a common MySQL 8 database errors which is as following,
'mysql' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
This error is caused, if we haven't setup environment variable for MySQL and we directly enter MySQL command in windows command prompt window. Once we configure environment variable, the erorr would be gone.
