type initializer for 'HtmlRenderer.Utils.FontsUtils' threw an exception : MYSQL WORKBENCH [FIXED]

The bug doesn't does not let you start connections, connect to the database.
It throws this error

"
MySQL Workbench has encountered a problem:
The type initializer for 'HtmlRenderer.Utils.FontsUtils' threw an exception.

I'm glad it was an easy fix.

Steps to fix:
Close the workbench if its open.
I had to replace the file HtmlRenderer.dll in the ProgramFiles/MYSQL/MySQL Workbench 6.3 CE/
Restart the workbench


That's it!
