Why is mysql running when i am not using it?
I have used mySQL for a project in the past, and haven't used it for months. However, when i check my task manager 'mysql' is using about 100MB of RAM. This happens every times i reboot. Why is my sql running, or using memory when i don't need it. Is a server running in the background that i have to disable? For context i was using my SQL Workbench 8.0 when working on my project.
Solution
- Open a command prompt window
cmd.exe - Stop MySQL service:
net stop mysql57(ornet stop mysql) - Go to your mysql server installation path, in my case:
cd "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\bin\" - Execute
mysqld.exe --remove
This will remove the MySQL Service.
Note that You may need an elevated command line prompt, for that press WIN-X select Command Prompt (Admin)
