MySQL Installer failed to upgrade MySQL Server if the previous installation of MySQL Server was not installed by MySQL Installer, and if MySQL Installer was auto-launched during its installation.
A workaround is to close the initial instance of MySQL Installer, and then launch MySQL Installer from the Start Menu. (Bug #14277765)
Fixed several typos in the MySQL Installer help dialogue, including grammar and URL updates. (Bug #64095, Bug #13639253)
Connector/NET was added to the MySQL Installer. (Bug #60861, Bug #12401368)
The MySQL Server 5.5.25a release is displayed as version 5.5.26. This is due to a MSI limitation.
