MySQL Visual Studio Cannot create a project window for the selected object

Question

Why, when I want to open the table design view in the MySQL database, every time I get an error

I can view data, edit data, manage data, but I can’t edit the table definition. I am using Visual Studio 2015 Community, MarriaDB 10.1.9 and MySQL for Visual Studio 1.2.6.

Answer 1

I was able to fix this problem by uninstalling Connector 6.9.9 and installing 6.9.8 - https://downloads.mysql.com/archives/c-net/

Answer 2

You need to install the Dot Net Connector.
