Description:
Then trying to do something useful with WB I always get error "System.AccessVilationException: Try to read or write to protected memory."

How to repeat:
Model->Create Diagram with Catalog Objects

This is non-critical ??

btw: I think you should tell if 'User Account control' is swithced on or off  and if the user is the administrative user or not!

If user is non-administrative he cannot write to 'Progam Files' tree (for instance).  A virtualized folder will be created by the system.  But if WB does not use the correct 'placeholder' name that might fail!

Bug is repeatable if WB is running under any user.

Can someone confirm whether this bug still applies? I've been able to normally use Workbench in
vista with no such crashes.

Bug is not repeatable with version 5.0.12

In MySQL Workbench 5.0 OSS (Software Rendering) 
no problem anymore after download version 5.0.14a 

(I'm using Windows Vista Business)
