dear users,

if you forgot your password for mysql and you r trying to reinstall it but it asks for current password

for resolution of this problem you need to do one thing just delete the following directory if you r a window 7 user:

C:\ProgramData\MySQL

delete this MySQL directory and install your mySQL now

this time it will not ask you for current password you can set your password now easily.

Believe me its working
