Thank you for the bug report. Are you using older saved connections?. If yes it works if you delete the older one and create new one?. Thanks.

Hi there.  I have deleted a connection and recreated it, and I still get the same issue.  please advise.

Using the same parameters: username, password, host_ip and port are you able to connect using the mysql.exe command line client?. Thanks.
