Description:
I was trying to use the new mysql_upgrade.exe executable under Win32, using the following command line:

"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin\mysql_upgrade.exe" --basedir="C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0"

I received the following error:

'Can't find program 'C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin\mysqlcheck'
Please restart with --basedir=mysql-install-directory'

The file 'C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin\mysqlcheck.exe' exists - but did someone forget that under Win32 executables have '.exe' on the end of their filenames?

The PATH statement already includes 'C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin' so that shouldn't be the problem

How to repeat:
Try running the new mysql_upgrade.exe under Win32
