The installer will transfer all the files to the Windows machine, including all necessary MySQL files, and will configure InfiniDB for use. Note that at present, InfiniDB will run on the standard MySQL port of 3306 so if you have a prior version of MySQL installed on the machine, you will need to shut it down and/or not use it while InfiniDB is running on the box.
Once the installation is complete, you can log into InfiniDB by using the standard mysql client utility. The InfiniDB binary path will be automatically added to the Windows Path so you should not have to path to any InfiniDB utility or executable.
