Do you see anything related in the Event Viewer logs at OS level?

I couldn't repeat on Windows 7 Professional and Ultimate. I don't know it works on my computers because I already installed msi install, please try the msi install and report what you got?. Thanks;
[2 Aug 2012 13:56] Nicholas Selleh
Shoot, I must not have caught the .zip in the first comment. My previously reported errors were from an install using mysql-workbench-gpl-5.2.41-win32.msi.
[2 Aug 2012 14:08] Nicholas Selleh
I just repaired Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) by downloading and installing the file available at http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=8328. MySQLWorkbench still wont run, and Windows Event logs still report the same errors:

Error Summary:
Exception Info: exception code c0000005, exception address 100B954E
...
wbprivate.be.dll

I'll attach the Report.WER for the latest app crash.

... So I renamed user_starters.xml to user_statrers_BKUP.xml and wd_state.xml to wb_state_BKUP.xml in hopes that the application would recreate proper ones upon the next execution.

On the next attempted launch of MySQLWorkbench it still crashed as usual. 
The windows application logs indicated the same wbprivate.be.dll problems
and the latest log from C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\MySQL\Workbench\log is as follows:
