>I have several [about 7-8] copies of mysql 5.6 in the "Services" app
If they are all trying to use the same my.ini file, and therefore the same port, then should ALL but the first one started would be crashing.

Check each services properties for the path to executable. It'll show you the "defaults-file=" that it is trying to use.
If thery are all the same, then you need to remove all but one. They should all have different names because you can't have two (or more) services with the same name.
Remove redundant services with Windows CLI and net command.

Open a CLI as administrator, and type "net /?" for info on how to use net command.

Good luck,
Barry.
