sounds like vista/win7 and UAC what has nothing to do with mysql
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc709691%28WS.10%29.aspx

no idea, not using windows-crap since 2006 with the exception of
Server 2008 R2 for our VMware-vCenter-Server, and yes on this
machine you can not open many folders as "administrator"

get a real operating system :-)

I installed everything using the standard gui 
install. I tried to uninstall Mysql and it says I 
am not an administrator even though I am logged in as one.

Which way was the old version installed?
Why not remove the old version with the control panel -> software?

Why not remove the old version with the control panel -> software?

Install Error - How to Fix

2011-01-14 Thread AndrewMcHorney

Hello

At one time I had (or at least partially) installed mysql on my 
laptop. I went to install a new version and I am getting  the following error:


A windows service with the name MySql already exists. Please 
uninstall this service correctly or choose a different name for the 
new service.


How do I uninstall this service?

Thanks,
Andrew
