Whenever I press F5, click the refresh option, or even reload my project, nothing happens. I don't understand why Eclipse would be doing this. Please help.

using latest version of vs code, i cant see the debug toolbar.
Version: 1.66.2
i've tried changing it in the settings from floating to docked to hidden and back to floating, restarted the program and i still cant see it.
You should press this combination of key : CTRL+Shift+Y
I think ive sorted it. the toolbar only appears if debugging is in process. it disappears when it has stopped. I thought it stayed there all the time.
For whoever still struggles with the problem, the problem for me was that the "Run and Debug" menu was unchecked for some reason.
Right-click on the menu bar and check it.

I have searched for a solution to my problem but with no avail. The eclipse Find/Replace function found by the hotkey ctrl+F is not working. Note: the function does not work by the hotkey neither by going through Eclipse menu Edit>Find Replace (not working I mean that the FindReplace window does not show at all, the eclipse window loses focus only). I have tried to disable the hotkey to see if it would work, restarted eclipsed, restarted the PC, but nothing seems to solve the problem. It was working just fine but then suddenly out of the blue it just decided not to function anymore. Everything I tried so far has failed. As I use this function often it would be nice to know if someone has another input for trying to solve this bug. I am on a PC with windows 7, intel i7 64-bits.
I had a similar issue after using second monitor at work. At home I was wondering where is my Find/Replace window... it was displayed at the second monitor as I used it last time... Eclipse stores the last location of the dialogs for better UX.
So try to move the Find/Replace window by using your keyboard.

You can also try to reset perspective
Window > Perspective > Reset Perspective...
I had the same issue with Eclipse. My current version is Neon.3 Release (4.6.3).
This periodically happens where the Find/Replace does not work.
Usually UNDO stops working also.
When this happens, Ctrl+F, Ctrl+Z do not work, and Undo Text Change and Find/Replace... are grayed out in the menu.
I tried the above solution Window > Perspective > Reset Perspective...
That fixed it right away!
Thanks
When your Eclipse are full with cache that time this problem occurs.
please try to reset perspective setting and then check it.
Just go to menu bar : Window -> Perspective -> Reset Perspective and it will done.
Normally you can navigate content assist popup window with Ctrl-p/n (Eclipse emacs keybindings)
(note that popup window is not activated because after it's activated you can navigate only with up/down keys).
After installing plugins that feature was lost and I was able to navigate only with up/down keys all the time. I tried reverting eclipse to previous state (through Installation History) => nothing helped. Maybe someone knows whether it's bug OR I should change some settings?
P.S. This behavior is very painful for someone who got used to emacs.
I am using Eclipse Juno. I was working in Java perspective and suddenly I minimized the console. I don't know where it went but I am unable to get it back. I even tried to get it from Windows>Show View>Console but I didn't get my console back.
It happened the same thing to me. Just click Window->Reset Perspective and everything will be back as it was when you installed eclipse.
Sure you'll have to customize it back to how you like it, but at least you'll have the console back.
If console is not visible, just search for "Console" in QuickAccess box on the right hand top of menu bar. you can get it back!
Stupid Eclipse. Are there no interface designers volunteering on this project? Why minimize something and make it hard to see where to bring it back? Probably all you have to do is hit Shift-Control-Tab-F9 with one hand while right-double-clicking the lower left hand corner. Hmm, how about a popup when you click a minimized Console that says "We see you've minimized your Console and you are clearly trying to switch to it. Would you like us to restore that so you can actually see it?" followed by "Are you really sure? Cuz ya know, you may be using this click path by accident."
The reset perspective works. Also, you can "Save Perspective" so it's not so hard to go back to your preferred Perspective.
Thanks for the tip.
Bring console to the front from Window -> Show View -> Console. Apparently the console remains invisible (that was the issue indeed), but it is virtually active in the foreground.
Close the current view (i.e. the invisible console) by going to the "Quick Access" box at the toolbar, typing "Close Part", and selecting the respective option on the drop-down.
Reopen console form Window -> Show View -> Console and voilà, it will appear. Drag it to your preferred location on the workbench.
This works for me under the following situation:
I had been previously playing with detaching several views (console included) and editors to a separate window on a different monitor; I have updated my workspace from Neon to Oxygen and I have had a hard reset at my computer. (So, not sure which among those was the reason that made it go wrong).
I wanted to avoid resetting my perspective, as it is highly customised, so I discarded that solution.
Other solutions herein proposed had not worked.
The console was working and the view became visible if I chose a different perspective (e.g. Debug) or a duplicate Eclipse window (which effectively provides a duplicate of a factory-reset perspective).
you could click the small icon on the bottom left and choose console. it will appear.
When I open linux eclipse IDE from windows using xterm(Reflection, MobaXterm), I found few problems:
When I right-click on a project, the menu appears for a millisecond, and disappears with a click action on about.
Sometimes the menu appears on right click, but if that menu has more items, usually it should scroll down/up, but the scroll button staying behind windows tast bar.
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks in advance!
I have the same issue too. It seems that the right-click menu disapears behind the Eclipse main window and behind the Windows taskbar...
Here is the workaround I use currently: in MobaXterm 5.0, just go to "settings" --> "X11" and choose "Windowed mode with Fvwm": this will open an X11 window.
When you run Eclipse using this tip, it correctly displays the right-click menu.
I hope this helps!
I googled but didn't find a solution.
For the first one, you can right click and hold it, move the mouse to the target menu entry, then release it.
In this way you can avoid a wrong click.
