Another version of this application is already installed.

Research direction
Start by reproducing winget install Oracle.MySQL in the reported Windows Package Manager environment and verify whether the existing Microsoft.VC++2015-2019Redist-x64 dependency triggers the failure. Trace the package dependency handling involved in that command; done means Oracle.MySQL installs successfully when the dependency is already installed.
