updating to Windows 8.1 breaks the MySQL server.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.had a MySQL server on Windows 8 the server was running on the same machine.
2.update to windows 8.1
3.the MySQL Processes didnt start on startup.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
that the server would start even after an update.
the MySQL side of the JMM server didnt start at all.
since i dont know much about SQL at all all i could do is to try to reinstall 
MySQL for the server. but that had problems aswell.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
OS: Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit
JMM Server:  3.1.32.0
JMM Desktop: 3.2.32.0
the JMM server was running MySQL as the wiki page guided me too.

Please provide any additional information below.
if we had a fool proof way to backup out database i wouldnt have lost all of 
the hashing time and such witch i lost.
if there is a way, could you plz inform us lesser people about it in the Wiki?

I dont think there is a need for a backup option, MySQL backup itself is pretty 
easy. Create an automated task and use this backup script 
http://pastebin.com/2SuWR4KE , run it every day or so. You might need to change 
some paths.
