Julia version:1.5.2
Windows 10
Something that was working till yesterday is not working today
When I run the following code, I get the following error
using MySQL,DBInterface
conn = DBInterface.connect(MySQL.connect,"localhost","root","pwd")
MethodError: no method matching connect(::typeof(MySQL.connect), ::String, ::String, ::String)

I uninstalled Julia and manually deleted all Julia related files except the code and installed fresh. Working fine now.
