MySQL installation problem on Windows 10 machine

MySQL installation issue..I'm trying to install MYSQL via MSI installation for windows. The configuration doesn't start the server and ends withe the following error

Waiting 3 seconds before the next connection attempt...
  Retry 3: Attempting to connect to Mysql@localhost:3390 with user root with no password...
MySQL error 0: Reading from the stream has failed.

However i couldn't able to skip without a password in the wizard.

Please let me know how to fix this problem

Problem may be the port number. The error you pasted says... 3390 + usual port is 3306...

You should have set a root password when you installed.

Be sure you keep the database root user + root pass somewhere safe, as you'll require this from time to time.

i tried using 3306 also but not useful. How to resolve this?
try install with Admin permission?

you also must have enough permission in order to connect to MySQL
also have enough permission to access to the path where your MySQL was installed
