MySQL 5.6 Community Edition Installation installs the following folders, but I just want to install the server alone and don't need any connectors or excel or docs. How should I do a custom install to do what I need.

C:\Program Files\MySQL>dir

Volume in drive C has no label.

Volume Serial Number is 96FE-9B3F

Directory of C:\Program Files\MySQL

  • Launch MySQL5.6 Installer

  • At the Setup Type step, select Custom :
    Setup Type
    (source: canardpc.com)

change the installation path and/or the data path if you need to,

  • At the next step, Feature Selection, just select what you need, MySQL Server 5.6.10 in your case :
    Feature Selection
    (source: canardpc.com)

  • Complete the installation and the configuration of your MySQL Server as usually (many tutorials are available for this part)
