After installing the plugin HTMLSchemaReport.py, my workbench fails to start.

MySQL Workbench 8.0.26 for Linux.

Hi Herberts, Important Note: Some users reported that they can't open MySQLWorkbench 8 after install older pyton plugin in Windows,

To solve this:

1. Open windows Explorer
2. Go to %APPDATA%\Roaming\MySQL\Workbench\modules
3. Delete older HTML pyton plugin
4. Start your MySQL Workbench.

maybe there is a similiar solution in Linux

HELP! I installed this without realizing it wouldn't work with latest Mac Version of MySQL Workbench. Workbench will not restart. How do I remove this plugin?

[tmsanchez]

One option is to open a terminal and go to

~username/Library/Application Support/MySQL/Workbench/modules

check if plugin is there and delete it, once file is deleted MySQLWorkbench should restart with no problem

In MacOS, you need to delete the file.

rm ~username/Library/Application\ Support/MySQL/HTMLSchemaReport_grt.py
