Description:
mysql doesn't read [Install path]\my.ini, ONLY C:\my.cnf

How to repeat:
Simple try add something in [client] part of [Install path]\my.ini or 
in [client] part of c:\my.cnf and will see difference.

Hi,

Thank you for the report, but this is not a bug. On Windows, MySQL clients read options from either WINDIR\my.ini or C:\my.cnf files.
