Description:
I am upgrading MySQL to 8.0.32 (from 8.0.27). The upgrade is successful, however, the Installer (which is version 1.6.5.0) hangs forever on the 'Apply Configuration' step at the point where 'Starting the server and upgrading the system tables (may take a long time)'.
The MySQL80 service starts correctly, however the log continuously adds periods where the process still thinks it is trying to start the service. Nothing at this point is written in to the logs except it states that the service started successfully, until I cancel the configuration step. End part of log:

Ports are open. Tried the upgrade on our TEST and DEV boxes, and get the same behavior.
How to repeat:
This hanging behavior is happening on all our instances of 8.0.27. I tried to replicate the issue with a fresh instance on 8.0.27 and then upgrade to 8.0.32, but was unable to as it worked without any issue. The only difference in this instance was Visual C++ redistributable was latest and the installer was also newer.
