Description:
I've just installed newest version of MySQL Server and Workbeanch on my laptop with Windows and configered a DB by default on address localhost:3306. During installation there were no errors or warnings, all prerequisites have been fulfilled. MySQL is running as a windows service and it's up. Now when I open a workbeanch there is a default connection localhost:3306 but when I try to connect using root or admin userID I immediately get an error message: external component has created an exception (in russian). There is no further info on the error. PC reboot doesn't help.

How to repeat:
Install mysql server on local pc, start workbeanch and try to connect to defaul local db

Thank you! I've installed a development release and error message become more precise and provided info that connection requires secured authentication method. I've changed the authentication method for the mssql server via mssql installer and then connected successfully to localhost DB.
