Description:
After installed the 8.0.10 community server msi, I start the workbench and click on button to make connection to local instance.  Nothing happened but a message box shows:

The type initializer for 'HtmlRenderer.Utils.FontsUtils' threw an exeception.

The workbench UI looks not crashed and simply not able to make any connection. But the truth is the Local instance button is not working any more and it shows 'MySQL Workbench has stopped working' if I click X on the top right corner of Workbench UI to close.

Additionally, I've tried to Edit that connection and use Test Connection button in Manage Server Connections dialog box, it shows Successfully made the MySQL connection

How to repeat:
install community server entire package
start workbench

Suggested fix:
could be a bug in UI whiling render the layout of UI

Thank you for the bug report. I couldn't repeat with version 8.0.18. Duplicate of https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=92889 also.
