Hello,

When I exit Eclipse, I get the following error:

Problems occurred while trying to save the state of the workbench.
Could not initialize snapshot file.

This has occurred since the computer in question was struck by a powercut. When I restart, the state of the projects as at shutdown have not been saved.

Version: Helios Release
Build id: 20100617-1415

Thanks for any assistance.

If you've a) bounced your computer host since beginning to get this and
b) tried launching Eclipse from the command line passing the -clean
option, I guess we'll have to wait for someone more knowledgeable to
answer this.

Best of luck,

Russ

It's fixed. I was using the workspace on one drive for projects upon another. When I switched to the workspace on the other drive, it worked.

Thanks for everyone's help.
