I recently came across problem while installing MYSQL on my Windows(I am on windows 11), where I got stuck in the step, it could not resolve updating start menu link. I found this post on Stackoverflow.

If you have troubles in while on Windows 11, here is a guide to solve the problem

1. Go to the control panel, and find the Windows Tools. IF you want to easily find the make sure to sort using small icons
   

2. On windows tools, scroll and find the Services
   

3. Once in services, Scroll through and find MYSQL services for my case I am using the latest version so it is MYSQL80. Right click on it and go to Properties
   

4. On properties, click on Log On tab, choose Local System Account and click on apply.
   

5. Go run the MYSQL installer and MySQL from the start and re-configure the MYSQL server. This worked on my side.
   

6. Remember to go back to step 4 and choose the default This Account. You can now enjoy MYSQL from the Workbench or the MySQL Shell
