Trying to upgrade MySQL Installer on Windows 10

[Martin OShea]

Hello

I recently installed MySQL on a Windows 10 PC and every night now at midnight UK time, Windows Installer V 5.0.10240.16386 opens to tell me that MySQL Installer requires an update.

From what I can tell, the automatic update of MySQL is failing but the Windows Installer message remains.

Presumably a manual installation is necessary but how am I meant to install it according to these instructions:
