Bug #22236 already describes this very problem. So I will mark this one as duplicate.

Description: Replacing MySQL Server's default my.ini with my-huge.ini causes MySQL Administrator to return an Access Violation when attepting to view "Startup Variables". How to repeat: Do a complete default Windows install of: - MySQL Administrator 1.2.4 rc ("C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Tools for 5.0") - MySQL 5.0.26 (x86 w/ installer) ("C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0") 1) Start MySQL service. 2) Start Administrator; connect to localhost as root; view "Startup Variables" section, all without problems. 2) Stop Administrator; backup default my.ini elsewhere and rename my-huge.ini to my.ini. Both files located in "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0" 3) Start Administrator; view "Startup Variables" section and receive memory exception. See attached screenshot. Suggested fix: No idea. Seems like Administrator should be able to read any of the ini files supplied with MySQL Server, or at least gracefully issue a refusal message instead of an access violation.
