1067 error on attempt to start MySQL

Answer 1

In my case, in order to delete a heavy schema from mysql server, just went to C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\Data and deleted relevant folder. But it was not being deleted because mysqld.exe was preventing it. so I stopped mysqld.exe, deleted the folder and then all the schemas went disappeared from the list in mysql workbench. No matter how much I tried to restart mysql service, it didnt unless I restored that folder from junk. Hope it helps someone who tried the same shortcut as I did.
