Description:
I know Windows Server 2003 is officially dropped from support because is no longer supporting it, but is this also true for MySQL?

The Server Installs, but when the Service attempts to start an Error 193 0xc1 is thrown.

Trying to manually launch any EXE's in Program Files throws a "not a valid windows application". 

I've now installed 5.6.28 without any issues.

Should 5.7 run on Server 2003 ?

How to repeat:
Install 5.7 on server 2003

Thank you for the bug report. Indeed Windows 2003 isn't more supported.

Receiving the same errors on windows 2012, will rollback to a previous level
