Re: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user '=root'@'localhost'

After running this command (see previous note about errors) I cannot start the SQL service at all now. This was the command I ran earlier

mysqld -defaults-file="\C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\my.ini" --skip-grant-tables


Errors in C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\Dat/ComputerName.err anow - SQL Service not starting at all (it is also grayed out in Services so I cannot try to start it manually). I do not know if this is good or worse!
