Updating from the previous version of Eclipse to the latest one, using Eclipse itself.
_Seemed_ to download and install fine.
Asked me if I wanted to restart Eclipse to finish the update. I click yes, restart.
Eclipse exits. It doesn't restart.
The Eclipse shortcut pinned to the taskbar loses its icon.
Clicking it now says "The item 'eclipse.exe' that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut will no longer work properly."
Do a search for the new eclipse.exe location...
There is no file named eclipse.exe on my computer (other than an old copy in a temp folder dated last year).
There's still an eclipse FOLDER where it should be, eclipse.ini, eclipsec.exe etc. So I can still launch eclipse with eclipsec, and my existing projects are still around, though of course eclipsec doesn't have the icon.
So what happened to eclipse.exe?
