• Recent Linux turn win10, modify invalid coding when installing MySQL, did not find a lot of programs a success in this hereby record it.
• Note: MySQL5.7 install version Download https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/ ,
  after entering click
  
  to download the old version 5.7

One, first of all talk about the online program, add my.ini file in the MySQL installation directory, file content:

```
[client]
default-character-set=utf8
[mysqld]
character-set-server=utf8
```

After the modification restart MySQL, log in to view coding show variables like '%char%';

see character_set_database and character_set_server still latin1, then the question is, how to change the coding of these two?

Second, the solution

I finally found the C drive has a hidden folder ProgramData, which find the next there is a MySQL my.ini,

1. Found [mysql], add # default-character-set = next linedefault-character-set=utf8
2. Find [mysqld], add the # character-set-server = next line character-set-server=utf8
   to restart MySQL again to see code, modified successfully
