title: how can I open eclipse and see the project view I last looked at?
body: <p>I'm completely mystified.</p>
  
  <p>I do not understand why Eclipse does not show me my list of projects!</p>
  
  <p>And all the answers I've seen to similar questions do not mention any 'go here and do that' type of answers.</p>
  
  <p>I tried 'Import/General/Existing Projects into Workspace/browse-to...' but that told me the project was already in the workspace. But I KNEW THAT!</p>
  
  <p>The project menu does not have an 'open project' option!!!!</p>
  
  <p>There is no 'open workspace' option.</p>
  
  <p>How do people open Eclipse and 'resume working'???</p>
  
  <p>What is the single, dependable, repeatable option for opening the 'project tree' to show my project?</p>
  
  <p>[or tell me my expectations that Java people are smarter are way off base!]</p>
  
  <p>Wait!!! I opened Eclipse again and there is an 'open project' link under the Project menu. But in all the times I've opened Eclipse, it is always disabled.</p>
  
  <p>So when you open eclipse, it asks you for a workspace location which is always the location where my project is. But when it opens itself up, the project is nowhere to be seen.</p>
  
  <p>So another (better?) question is what does Eclipse think I want to do or should be doing just after I open it up?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
