  • Select the Custom setup type

  • Click the “Install” button and wait for the installation process is finished

  • Click the “Finish” button

After you installed the client the “ODBC Data Source Administrator” (Select the Windows Control Panel → Administrative Tools → Data Sources (ODBC) option. The ODBC Data Source Administrator window is displayed.) must be updated with the driver appropriate to the build installed, like in the picture below:

If the appropriate MySQL driver can be seen in the “ODBC Data Source Administrator”, the driver installation has completed successfully.
