"As part of this partnership Oracle will certify and support Oracle software on Windows Server Hyper-V and Windows Azure. That means customers who have long enjoyed the ability to run Oracle software on Windows Server can run that same software on Windows Server Hyper-V or in Windows Azure and take advantage of our enterprise grade virtualization platform and public cloud. Oracle customers also benefit from the ability to run their Oracle software licenses in Windows Azure with new license mobility. Customers can enjoy the support and license mobility benefits, starting today." (June 23th 2013). I have not seen any such certification of the MySQL server, clients or utilities announced, though! :-)

@Nicolas .. apart from that: the Windows 'Event Viewer' (Control Panel .. Administration .. Logs) may have more information.

I'm not at office until Monday for the events viewer details. I have tried to install with mysql-workbench-community-6.0.6-win32.msi

In Event Viewer, they are these logs:
"Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: MySQL Workbench 6.0 CE. Product Version: 6.0.6. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Oracle Corporation. Installation success or error status: 0." and "Product: MySQL Workbench 6.0 CE -- Installation operation completed successfully."
But the python.exe error message still appear and when I start Workbench I have this error message :

with mysql-installer-web-community-5.6.13.0 it's ok, but not with mysql-workbench-community-6.0.6-win32.msi
[20 Aug 2013 11:59] MySQL Verification Team
The Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 X86 Redistributable is installed ?. Thanks.
[20 Aug 2013 12:29] Nicolas De Amicis
Not before (or with) mysql-workbench-community-6.0.6-win32.msi but installed by
mysql-installer-web-community-5.6.13.0.
It's a dependency not managed by the mysql-workbench-community-6.0.6-win32.msi setup?
[5 Sep 2013 0:32] MySQL Verification Team
Please try versin 6.0.7. Thanks.
[5 Sep 2013 11:23] Nicolas De Amicis
Yes it's work, but Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable was installed before. It's a dependency or not? Or C++ 2010?
