MySQL not starting on MAMP. Nothing is working

I've installed MAMP on clean Windows 10 installation. When I try to run MAMP, it starts Apache server and doesn't start MySQL server. I've searched and tried many different options but none of these help.

What I've tried:

  1. Uninstall / Install MAMP again
  2. Delete ib_logfile0, ib_logfile1, ibdata1
  3. Try different ports (3306, 8888)
  4. Type killall -9 msqld

Here is what error log says:

2019-02-20T10:13:34.538252Z 0 [Warning] TIMESTAMP with implicit DEFAULT value is deprecated. Please use --explicit_defaults_for_timestamp server option (see documentation for more details).

What happens if you type C:\MAMP\\bin\mysql\bin\mysqld.exe into a command window? - Neville Kuyt

I've created data folder manually and now nothing happens when I type C:\MAMP\\bin\mysql\bin\mysqld.exe in terminal - Alexander
This feels like a permissions problem. I haven't used MAMP in years (or Windows for that matter), but make sure the MySQL Daemon has read/write permissions - Neville Kuyt
Any suggestion where can I find this setting? I'm already running MAMP as administrator - Alexander

I ended up installing older version of MAMP (3.3.1), which is working fine now. Seems that version 4.1.0 is not stable or not compatible with my Windows.
