Description:
I've reset, reinstalled, and restarted 'everything', the DB Connection Overview never shows anything, previous connections are gone, can't add connections.

How to repeat:
No idea.

Suggested fix:
Bring back MySQL Workbench support.

After increasing log levels and seeing RuntimeError: PermissionError: [WinError 10013] An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions, this was resolved with 

net stop winnat
net start winnat

It would be nice if errors like this were surfaced to the UI instead of silently failing.

Thank you for your interest in MySQL Shell for VS Code extension. The extension is now deprecated and no longer supported. We recommend that you use the new MySQL Workbench 26, which supersedes it.
