Hello house!
I just installed MySQL on my Windows 7 OS. But after finishing the installation and launching the program, a Notepad window displays requesting for password. I have entered several passwords but to no avail. Pls help! I am just a starter. Thanks.

Try to use the password u use during the instalation. Then hit the enter key.

There was no any form of request for password during installation. I was only prompted to supply a password upon launching the program. Pls can someone else comment on this?

use "mysql"

probably, this is for a development server abi? Just download wamp. Thats what everyone uses

Nawawo you want our help okay why not ? But you are making it difficult for us to help you.
You should have taken a screenshot of the window where it asked for the password you didn't , which version of mysql ? No version
After the installation no "notepad" window would come and ask for a password - its another window
The window where its aksing for the password is it immediately after the installation ? Did it close the installation window first ? With the desktop showing If yes leave the password blank , if no well you have passed the page where it asks for a password for the first time configuration
By default - in my sql:
Username : root
Password :
The empty space means nothing, yes no password
If it didn't work, don't bother to furnish more details you don vex me already
Just do a system restore and leme know which version you want installed
