Description:
When using MySQL Administrator to manage instances, instances added after the last one was removed causes the MySQL System Tray context menu to fail to populate the Server section.

How to repeat:
With an installed MySQL instance right click System Tray Monitor.
Notice the context menu contains Server status, Shutdown, Configure, etc.
Click Actions... Manage MySQL Instances.
In the Administrator window, uninstall all instances.
Close Administrator.
Right click System Tray Monitor.
Notice context menu has dropped the server specific section.
Click Actions... Manage MySQL Instances.
In Administrator, add a valid instance (ini and exe paths...)
Start the Service.
Close Administrator.
Right click System Tray Monitor.
Context menu is still "server"less.
Close System Tray Monitor.
Run System Tray Monitor.
Server section is returned.

Suggested fix:
Possible need for Administrator to cause System Tray monitor to re-read whatever it reads when System Tray Monitor loaded if Administrator has just added the "first" instance.

This seems to be fixed already.

Please try actual version and let us know if all works fine.
