tagsit isn’t necessary to run MySQL in the background at all timestagsMySQL just needs to run when Compendium runs. Doing this requires removing winmysqladmin.exe from Startup, and manually launching it before launching Compendium. Possibly C:\mysql\bin\winmysqladmin.exe could be added to the compendium.bat file that launches Compendium. I do the manual launch on one of my systems where I run Compendium less frequently.
