For example, In this version of MySQL Installer, did the same procedure, returned "--action=upgrade is not a support action" and MySQL Client menu became don't work.
Before update：MySQL Server 5.7.18.1
After update：MySQL Server 5.7.19
After that procedure, we have to change path of MySQL Client menu's property as belows. (Need to change path from "Program Files" to "ProgramData"
"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\bin\mysql.exe" "--defaults-file=C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\my.ini" "-uroot" "-p"
↓
"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\bin\mysql.exe" "--defaults-file=C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\my.ini" "-uroot" "-p"
Need to update the procedure for MySQL 5.7 and 8.0.
