Installing `mysql`, then uninstalling and installing `mysql --version 5.7.18` leads to server not being reachable #305

I installed mysql first, then found out the tool I was using can not connect to MySQL 8. Then I uninstalled it, and installed MySQL 5.7.18 (explicitly). It "worked", but now I can't seem to connect to the server and I am not sure if it is actually running or not.

Had to uninstall via Chocolatey completely, remove the folder manually, then reinstall via usual .msi from MySQL to get it to work :(

Same here. I had to follow the steps from @janpio to make it work again.
