The MySQL installation process does not allow me to do the product configuration, so I can't create a new user and a new connection. How can this be resolved?

Hi Conte! Thanks for reaching out. Are you unable to complete the installation without the product configuration part? Or, does not the installer provide a suggestion on how to resolve the given problem? Please support your query with answers to the above questions and/or provide a screenshot that can help us better assist you. Thank you. We realise the solution of this issue may require the exchange of a few messages, but I am optimistic that very soon you will have been able to set up Workbench and MySQL on your end. Hope this helps. Looking forward to your answer. Best, Martin

Martin, Thank you for your prompt response. The "New Authentication Plugin - Creating a New User" video helped me to resolve this issue, so I have successfully created a new account. I will let you know if I run into any other problems! Thanks!
