Locking is not possible in the directory C:\eclipse\configuration\org.eclipse.osgi

Question

I used to have Eclipse 3.5.2 working from my Limited User Account (i.e. not Administrator).

But when I upgraded to 3.6.2, Eclipse refuses to run in the Limited User

Answer 1

Who has write access to the directory: C:\eclipse & C:\eclipse\configuration ?

AFAIK eclipse decides, on startup, whether to use the central installation as the configuration location, or a user accessible directory based on whether the eclipse (or possibly the configuration) directory are writable.
