I can't connect to the MySQL database

I am not able to connect to my database, because when I select the MySQL database connector in Power BI, it says that it needs to install a connector, but this connector is already installed on my machine. And even if I restart the computer, it doesn't work. I have tried to uninstall the connector and Power BI and reinstall again, and it still doesn't work. Can anyone help me? Because I need to connect to my MySQL database.

Before, I was able to connect normally to the MySQL database through this connector, without having to do anything other than install the connector. Now I have this recent problem with it asking me to download the connector, even though I have already installed the latest version of it. If anyone can solve it, I would appreciate help with this.
