Description:
I get error every time I tried to lunch my root connection to the workbench.

I'm a new user but I have not been able to successfully lunch or open my root connection even after I have followed due process during the installation.

I get "MySQL workbench has encountered a problem" as the error message with the below details

"We are sorry for the inconvenience but an unexpected exception has been raised by one of the MySQL Workbench modules. In order to fix this issue we would kindly ask you to file a bug report. You can do that by pressing the [Report Bug] button below.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to help us improve MySQL Workbench!
