sometimes i have to abandon a workspace, especially if i’m using too many ( see my previous post how many i have right now ). but the workspace still shows up in the recent workspace list, even if the directory has been deleted. how can i get rid of an unwanted workspace? as always, there is a setting for this…

the setting is accessible under the menu window > preferences > general > startup and shutdown > workspaces :

managing workspaces

here i can remove a workspace from the list. the same settings page configures the number of workspaces to remember, and if eclipse is prompting for it at startup time.

hint: if you are wondering, where these settings are stored, then see this blog post . it is inside that file: \configuration\.settings\org.eclipse.ui.ide.prefs

happy workspacing :-)
