After installing the C++ Runtime and .NET Framework 4.0, I installed MySQL Workbench 5.2.34 and though it installs fine it will not launch.
I also received the following error in the event log:
Application: MySQLWorkbench.exe
Framework Version: v4.0.30319
Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.
Exception Info: System.TypeInitializationException
Stack:
at MySQL.GUI.Workbench.Program.Main(System.String[])
Source:. NET Runtime
Event ID: 1026
After examining this thread I resorted to removing 5.2.34 and installed 5.2.31a from the following source:

I hope the problem is resolved with the latest version.
Thanks,
