Hi,

The last 3 commands executed by you try to invoke MySQL server(mysqld) and not MySQL client tool - mysql.

C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0.15\bin>mysqld flush privileges

C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0.15\bin>mysqld ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'NEWpassword';

C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0.15\bin>mysqld -u root -p

The last statement kicks in keyring migration mode of MySQL server.
See: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-security-excerpt/8.0/en/keyring-key-migration.html

If you intend to reset password, i would suggest you to follow
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-windows-excerpt/8.0/en/resetting-permissions-windows.html
OR
Execute above mentioned statement using MySQL client tool - mysql rather than mysqld which is server binary.

HTH.

Best Regards,
- Harin
