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

Well on windows, a simple work around for the same is to start Eclipse as an Administrator.

Right Click on Eclipse icon and click on Run as administrator.

It will solve your problem.

Enjoy :)
