Description:
In Manage Server Instances window, when you clic in System Profile tab and clic on any Windows Profile Template the path to configuration file textfield fills with the next path: "%ProgramFiles%\MySQL...". 

The problem is that MySQL Workbench, when you open the instance that include this OS Variable in the path, and clic in Configuration tab, this that doesn´t load the ini parameters because MySQL Workbench don't read correctly this OS Variable.

How to repeat:
Use a OS Variable like %ProgramFiles% in configuration path

Suggested fix:
That the MySQL Workbench load correctly OS Variables in diferents path

This Bug #50635 refers to a problem with OS language.
