First thing I would do before attempting to fix the issue is make a
backup of your database; Once you've done that; check your environment
variables in System Properties > Advanced Tab > Environment Variables
and look under System Variables for Path, edit it and and see if
possibly the path to /mysql install path here/bin hasn't been removed
due to the upgrade. If it's not there then try putting that back in and
reboot your computer. If worse comes to worse I suppose you could
reinstall MySQL and then restore from your database backup if necessary
(not sure if it would get overwritten or not from a reinstall).


Thanks Chris... the path environment variable was okay and the usual mysql and mysqld commands were being found. It was the "MySQL" service registration that had in it a faulty path to the myslyd executable with the /bin stripped out, and indeed the parameter to the --default-path removed! Since the services area in the Task Manager does not let you alter the executable I had to resort to changing the registry. But a simple change there to make it the same as all my other MySQL 5.6 entries and it all worked again fine. Really peculiar upgrade issue!
