Public bug reported: When I installed MySQL I use ')' in the password. The symbol does on work when the password is on the command line to start MySQL(I do this since I am the only one who uses this computer). I forgot that I did not need to put the password on a command line ans started to uninstall MySQL. That is when I got this message.
