MySQL Installer Guide
A release that includes MySQL server 5.5.37 and 5.6.17, and later the MySQL server 5.6.18 commercial release.
MySQL for Visual Studio failed to install on a host that only had Visual Studio 2013 installed, as the pre-requisite check only scanned for version 2012 or below. (Bug #18156343, Bug #71474)
MySQL Installer could fail to detect the "VSTO 2010" requirement for MySQL for Excel when Microsoft Office was installed, as Microsoft Office and MySQL for Excel require different versions of the VSTO DLL. Now, the Installer for VSTO is launched when the prerequisite is not installed. (Bug #18078467)
The license conversion process was improved. This process converts MySQL product licenses from Commercial to Community, or Community to Commercial. Also, a product was designated as having a different license if the installed product version was newer than the version known by the Installer. (Bug #17503596, Bug #70408)
