Unable to install mySQL and connect to power BI

I was unable to connect mysql to powerBI. After uninstalling all the current mysql components i tried to install different versions of mysql. But i was unable to install properly. I got an error during the product configuration stage (attached image) and if i click continue, in the next stage i have to give the root password inorder to go further. But i didnot create any password (It seems password creation stage is missing). How can i fix this. Please help

@abdulbasithk29 , Make sure there is no windows patch pending. And then re-istall.

 

It seem like widows issue, not the power bi issue. So ask help on Windows Q&A forum

Thank you for your reply. I will ask in windows forum
