Description:
I have installed and reinstalled the software multiple time. The very first time it work like a charm. I didn't use it for awhile and when i got to it the exception was thrown. Each time i have reinstalled it and opened the workbench, the external component error would appear. If i closed the error box, it would close my program saying "MySQL has stopped working".

How to repeat:
Open the workbench.
