Can a broken eclipse be repaired?

问题:

Since a few days I can't no longer use the keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl-S because it inserts special characters into my sources. In a property file I noticed that Ctrl-S inserts \u2308 .

Is there a way to repair this, without reinstalling STS_2.8.1 ?

回答1:

You can try starting Eclipse from the command line with the -clean option (so use the command eclipse -clean).

回答2:

You can try changing workspace, it usually restores all default settings on modern version of Eclipse. A lighter version of that is simply to prune the .metadata folder in your workspace (as all settings - yes, including SCM ones - are stored there).
