Eclipse will not show files in package explorer

Question

I don’t know what went wrong because it worked before, but all of a sudden I have no files in my eclipse package explorer.

The workspace path displays correctly and the file permissions are correct.

Can anyone think about what happened?

Answer 1

I had the same problem (it probably occurred when I canceled copying to the Dropbox folder). All I had to do was click File → Import → General → Existing Projects into Workspace and select the missing projects in the window that appeared.

Answer 2

Bypass

• Create an empty workspace
  • Go to (File> Switch to Workstation> Other)
  • Clik Browse> Create New Folder
  • Click "OK" in the viewport.
  • Click ok in the workspace creation window.
• Import an existing project into a new workspace
  • Go to file> Import
  • Click General> Existing Project in Workspace.
  • Click "Next"
  • Review and selection of the previous project
  • Click Finish

Congrats! Now you can see your project in the package explorer by importing it.

Answer 3

Project Explorer → click on "View Menu" -> Top level items → Click on "Projects"

Answer 4

I don’t know what causes the problem, but found a way to return the files back to the package explorer.

If you go along the path to your workspace and find your projects, you can pack them all into a zip archive file, and from this zip archive file you can import your projects again using File → Import → General → Existing Projects into Workspace File → Import → General → Existing Projects into Workspace .

I don’t know what causes the problem, but in my case, I think it has something to do with the fact that my workspace is in the dropbox folder.

ps. I don’t know if you can take more than one project into one zip file and make it work, I tried only one pr project. ZIP file, but it should not matter.

Answer 5

• Refresh Project
• If this does not help, close and reopen the project.

Answer 6

I started the wrong eclipse installation. When I started the correct installation, my code appeared normally. I have both C ++ and Java EE installed.

Answer 7

Just update all projects, you can see all the missing files after importing from the workspace.

Answer 8

1) Make sure that you are using the correct workspace.

2) Select your "workspace" -Folder "/ YourWorkspace", NOT the folder of your project "/ YourWorkspace / yourProject"

Or delete your project from your "YourWorkspace> /. Metadata /.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.projects/PROJECTNAME/.location"

and restart.

Hope this helps
