XAMPP Mysql won't start

I've been using XAMPP for a couple of months and suddenly I'm getting an error in XAMPP that I haven't been able to find a solution.

12:07:28  [mysql]   Problem detected: MySQL Not Found!
12:07:28  [mysql]   Disabling MySQL buttons
12:07:28  [mysql]   Run this program from your XAMPP root directory!

This is the error I'm getting from the XAMPP control panel.

When I go to the XAMPP root directory and try to run the mysql_start.bat file it says

mysql\bin\mysqld is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file

I'm not sure what to do from here to get everything working again.

You have not specified the OS in which you are working. Most possible solution is to install the xampp application as admin and disable anti virus during the installation process. Also disable UAC if in windows. Run the application as administrator. This post is taken from a previously asked question on the same topic. You can find it here

apache and mysql start button are disabled in xampp control panel
