Can't install mysql server on windows

Question

I'm trying to install a mysql server on my win 10 machine. I've downloaded the installer from here, but when I open it, it finds an installed version of mysql server on my computer (which I thought I had uninstalled something like a month ago). I tried to remove it from the installer, but it fails when it reaches 50%, and I also cannot find any mysql file on my computer. Can anyone of you help me removing the thing I have on my computer to make a new fresh install on mysql server, please?

Thanks,

Lorenzo

this is way too broad imo - are there any error messages? Also, may be off-topic and better suiter for super user SE — treyBake

@RishabhKSharma the problem is that when I open the installer, it doesn't prompt the things that are shown in the video, it lists the installed packages — Lorenzo

@ThisGuyHasTwoThumbs it only says "1: The action 'Remove' for product 'MySQL Server 8.0.13' failed." — Lorenzo
