MySQL Workbench 5.2.42 crash on startup on Win7 x64

I have a win7 x64 system (i3, nvidia card) and I want to use MySQL Workbench, but after launching it crashes with the following message:

I was searching about this issue, and found few possible solutions, like deleting Workbench folder in AppData or reinstalling .NET or reinstalling Visual C x86 from Microsoft, but nothing was helpful. Thanks for help.

Did you download WB as a installerless zipfile? The problem might be with the executable files (exe, dll etc) being blocked by Windows with this warning "This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer".

If you unblock your zipfile before unpacking the contents no files will be blocked and hopefully WB will run without problems. See for example this post.
