Issue
After I select a workspace to start, pop up a window saying "An error has occurred. See the log file *my_work_space.metadata.log"
The log is:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 4 0 2019-03-19 16:57:32.090

.\eclipse.exe -data C:\*\my_work_space
However, I do not want to launch it in this way forever. Any help is appreciated!
