M6 Always starting up with wrong workspace [message #335844]

I'm running into this problem with M6: Whenever I load Eclipse, it always
automatically starts up with the workspace in my "Documents and Settings" folder
(Windows XP). There is no dialog to select my workspace, so I always have to
switch it at start up. The "prompt for workspace" preference is set in the
preferences. Anyone else having this problem?

Never mind. Just upgraded to M7. Must have been fixed.

Del,

Issues like this are usually caused by third-party plug-ins. Could it be
that the M7 build does not have all the plugins installed that you had in
your M6 build?

If the issue comes back, and no third-party plug-in is involved, please file
a bug!
