Hi.

I updated eclipse.exe and now I have lost eclipse.exe altogether.

Luckily I still have my work folder.

Can someone help?

Can you provide more detail on how you updated eclipse.exe? There should be an entire tree of files along with it.

Yes, there were a few of them, I simply updated all of them rather than select one or the other.

At the end, the update-app said to reboot the computer to complete the update.

When the laptop rebooted, eclipse.exe has disappeared.

I am downloading a the latest eclipse and start over again, luckily, workspace is still there.

Please remind me, when I have the latest eclipse installed again, all I need is to import the java projects from the old workspace into the new workspace?

A few of what? Please describe in detail what you did, what prompted it, etc.

No Eclipse function would ever request a reboot. Your definition of "update eclipse.exe" obviously means something that we don't understand; don't assume we saw whatever you did.

It's note even that complicated; when you first start Eclipse it will prompt you for a workspace, just select your existing workspace and go.
