Description:
When opening the application I get an error saying "Error while loading image.  And error occurred while loading search_sidebar.png".  I close that and the application is available.  If I try to connect to a server I get an error saying "MySQL Workbench has encountered a problem.  Parameter is not valid.  
We are sorry for the inconvenience but an unexpected exception has been raised by one of the MySQL Workbench modules. In order to fix this issue we would kindly ask you to file a bug report. You can do that by pressing the [Report Bug] button below. 

Please make sure to include a detailed description of your actions that lead to this problem.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to help us improve MySQL Workbench!

I get this no matter what server I try to connect to, and these are previously working, saved connections.
