Well, after several installs and uninstalls of Mysql the problem was that the \bin, \docs\, \help, \include, \lib, and \share directories were under \program files\canon\easy-webprint EX. instead of \program files\mysql\mysql server 5.6
The directory in error was \Program files\Canon\easy-webprintEX\. Fortunately there were a number of users having the same problem which showed up on a google search. A sample:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\ directly (and NOT in a subkey, as it should be) contains the entries InstallLocation, UninstallString and a few more that relate to the Canon software.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\InstallLocation and MySQL Server installs into the "correct" location."
Until the entries in .\Uninstall directory were removed the .\canon\easy-webprintEx\ always reinstalled the sub directories (\bin etc) from Mysql.
Using Regedit, I deleted the 3 entries with \canon\easy-webprintEX\. Stopped the service, uninstalled all Mysql programs, rebooted, and used Mysql installer to set up community version.
