Hi,
I am using Windows 11 and I downloaded the mysql-installer-community-8.0.39.0
While configuring the mysql server, it threw an error in "Initializing Database" step. Below is the log from the configuration setup:

I even attempted to remove mysql server product which again failed with the following log:

I then attempted to uninstall mysql server from 'installed apps' in settings which also failed with the following message prompt:
"""
The installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package.
"""
I have tried googling these errors and even followed some youtube videos to try to fix them but without any success.
Asking for help in resolving this issue as soon as possible.
