All projects in workspace disappeared [message #735882]

I've been creating a bunch of different workspaces lately and switch between them often. For some reason, when I went back to my default workspace today, all of the projects are gone and no longer show up in the Package Explorer. For all the other workspaces, the projects still show up. I've checked the actual directory and all the projects are still there in the filesystem. I've tried refreshing and changing the working sets, yet nothing seems to work. What else could this issue be?

Thanks!

Did you accidentally deleted the projects but not from the file system?
You can try importing 'Existing projects into Workspace'. Uncheck 'Copy
projects into workspace' option in the wizard as the projects already
exist in the workspace directory.

Unless there's a way to delete all projects from a workspace with one action (click or key press), then I doubt that I did that. I can try importing them back, but before I do, I want to make sure there isn't something I'm missing. Is this a common occurrence? Could the workspace's data be corrupted or something? Again, I find it very odd that the projects don't show up when most of them actually exist in the workspace's directory on the filesystem...

It can happen if your projects are selected in the Package Explorer and
you press Delete and Enter :)
