Re: MySql ODBC driver on Windows 11

[Bogdan Degtyariov]

Hi Philip,

By default Windows is trying to run the 32-bit version of ODBC Administrator, which does not show 64-bit drivers. That is why you couldn't see anything after installing.

The easiest way to run the correct ODBC Admin is using the command line (or creating shortcuts for the following paths):

- For 32-bit ODBC Admin:
%WINDIR%\SysWow64\odbcad32.exe

- For 64-bit ODBC Amin:
%WINDIR%\System32\odbcad32.exe

You can identify the ODBC Administrator by its window title, which has either "(32-bit)" or "(64-bit)".
