Description:
It used to be if my session was disconnected, I could begin executing queries again and the session would automatically connect. Since updating to 6.3.6 I am receiving a "MySQL server has gone away" when executing queries in the SQL editor and I'm not able to connect the session again.

How to repeat:
Execute queries in SQL Editor. Disconnect from internet. Reconnect to internet. Try executing another query.

Suggested fix:
Reconnect automatically when I try to execute a query.

Thank you for the feedback. I though your issue is the same as https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=80225. Could you please point me what was the version which had the re-connect action when querying a lost prior connection. Thanks.

No problem, thank you for looking at these. The version I was using that would reconnect automatically was 6.2.5.0 (build 397)

Please try version 6.3.8. Thanks.
