I am still unable to reset my root password using MySQL 8.0 for Windows 10. I hope I don't have to do the "cold start" solution (uninstall/reinstall), but I tried doing mysqld start using --skip-grant-tables after successfully stopping the server, all to no avail:

C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin>mysqld start --skip-grant-tables --console
