This bug is the original bug of the following one: https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=103332
Description: Hi, Trying to change the configuration file (edit connection->system profile->configuration file), but it's not editable (greyed out). How to repeat: edit connection->system profile->configuration file. Can't edit. Suggested fix: Should be able to edit the configuration file As a workaround: =================================================== 1 - close workbench, if open 2 - make a backup server_instances.xml Usually located here: %AppData%\Roaming\MySQL\Workbench\server_instances.xml 3 - edit server_instances.xml and change the string: -------------------------------- <value type="int" key="sys.config.path.lock">1</value> -------------------------------- to: -------------------------------- <value type="int" key="sys.config.path.lock">0</value> -------------------------------- 4 - start workbench 5 - In Workbench edit your connection. ===================================================
