Check the .err log in the datadir, franly if it said "normal shutdown"
after you stop the service (you are running it as a service) I wouln't
worry about it because mysql flushed tables and logs before nt sent
out the error anyway.
I get this every now and again (or simliar behavior) when I
net stop mysql it doesn't always just ay it stopped, but the .err
log always says it shutdown clean.
