Java with Netbeans

[boycantlearnanything]

hello, i am newbie at programming

im learning java, and i use netbeans as ide
what i have installed :
-jdk
-netbeans
-mysql full instalation
-xampp (because 3306 port is used when i installed mysql, i changed the port to 3307)
all of them are the latest version
-and my os is windows 10 64 bit

i downloaded some coding with db files, and i opened them as project in netbeans
i am always stuck at "mysql driver",this library doesnt exist,
so i tried to follow some steps from internet, i downloaded mysql-connector-java-5.1.23-bin, and import to the netbeans, some errors are gone, but not fully fix all the issues

how do people have mysql driver inside their netbeans, but i dont have it at all?
i really need help, i never be able to connect java to the database
thank you
