Answer 1

If your workspace is corrupted and Eclipse doesn't startup with your currently pre-selected workspace, you may edit SHOW_WORKSPACE_SELECTION_DIALOG=false to SHOW_WORKSPACE_SELECTION_DIALOG=true which is located in file

C:\PathToEclipse\eclipse\configuration\.settings\org.eclipse.ui.ide.prefs

before you start the IDE.

Answer 2

window > preferences > general > startup and shutdown > workspaces

then check 'Prompt for workspace on startup'

Answer 3

You can find it here :

Menu: Window -> Preferences -> General -> Startup and Shutdown -> Workspaces -> Prompt for workspace on startup

Eclipse preferences has a lot of options. You can search for specific options by typing in the filter text box at the top of the preferences dialog.

If you type in 'startup' for instance the list will be much shorter.
