Eclipse makes window explorer go slow

I started using eclipse today. I downloades from the page, this version Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java and Web Developers, and suddenly, after using eclipse windows explorer starts going slow, it takes like 5 minutes to load a folder, and even if i close eclispe this problem is still there. I can't uninstall and reinstall because it was a zip archive not an executable. If i restart the computer, everything goes perfect, but afer i open eclipse one i can't even make right click on the desktop to creat a file, because it gets stuck.
No idea how to solve it. Any tips?

Eclipse doesn't save the previous settings like workspace & Plug-ins

I am using Eclipse Neon on my MacBook & every time I start Eclipse it prompts me for my workspace again and again even though I set it as my default one.
Same goes for the plug-ins I have installed , I need to install eclipse decompiler every time I load eclipse.
I get an error like : "This wizard helps you to import and reinstall previously installed plug-ins. It is triggered because
either you are launching eclipse for the first time or your Eclipse has been updated."
Can someone please assist me with this issue ?
I had the same problem after updating my Mac to Sierra: Eclipse would not remember the default workspace. After moving Eclipse into the Application folder, the problem disappeared.
The issue seems to come from a Mac OSX Sierra feature called 'path randomization' (see eclipse bug 507328). The actual solution to avoid the path randomization seems to be for eclipse to provide signed .dmg images (bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=461670).
Two workarounds that I can suggest are:
Start from the eclipse oomph installer when installing eclipse (see https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=rview&goto=1754574#msg_1754574)
Start the actual eclipse executable file instead of opening the .App container

Installed a plugin on eclipse (mars), now eclipse won't start. How can I uninstall the plugin?

I installed a plugin for viewing json files, its the "json tool" by sweetlemonade.
Anyway, after installing it I tried to view a json file (very large file) which I thought the plugin might be able to handle. Well, eclipse crashed when I did this. Now I can't get eclipse to start again. It fails when it gets to "loading org.sweetlemonade.eclipse.json"
I've searched for other answers on here but the accepted answers include using "p2 director" to uninstall the plugin via command line. The only problem is the answer is for an old version of eclipse. I'm using eclipse mars and can't find an install for "p2 director" anywhere.
How can I uninstall this plugin manually and get eclipse to run again? I want to solve this without having to reinstall and lose my project setups.
Okay so I managed to solve this by navigating to
configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info
and deleted the line responsible for the plugin:
org.sweetlemonade.eclipse.json,1.1.0,../../../.p2/pool/plugins/org.sweetlemonade.eclipse.json_1.1.0.jar,4,false
Then I ran eclipse again and it opened just fine. I saw the tab where eclipse previously tried to open the large JSON file was still open except now it has an "x" with the message that the json tool plugin couldn't be found. Since the issue was probably occurring because eclipse kept trying to restore that tab every time I opened it, I closed the tab then closed eclipse and re-added the line I deleted to the bundles.info file. Lastly, I reopened eclipse and uninstalled the plugin the proper way (since the plugin wouldn't be of any use to me).
It sounds to me like Eclipse autosaved your workspace with that file open; the autosave happens every 5 minutes by default. Rename that autosave file, found in _workspace_/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.e4.workbench/workbench.xmi, and relaunch.
You can then use the Help → About → Installation Details to uninstall the JSON editor if you so choose.

Why does NetBeans not install updates?

I am using NetBeans 8.0.2 (build 201408251540; 64 bit) on Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
When I check for updates via Help > Check for Updates I see the following dialog:
When I then click Next > it says that it downloads them in the status bar and after a moment I get a balloon tooltip saying that I need to restart the IDE to complete the installation. So far, so good.
Though after restarting I get the same updates offered again. So it obviously failed to install them.
I already tried the following:
Started NetBeans as administrator
Set full access rights to users on the NetBeans installation folder
Started netbeans.exe instead of netbeans64.exe
Why are the updates failing? Is there some protocol I can enable to see what is going on?
After trying to uninstall NetBeans and getting the message
The specified target component - nb-base/8.0.0.0.xxx was not found in the registry. The installer can continue as if the target component was not specified.
(see How to uninstall Netbeans 6.9 on Windows 7?) I downloaded the latest version of NetBeans from netbeans.org and reinstalled NetBeans 8.0.2 over my previous installation.
When I now check for updates the NetBeans IDE Installer tells me that my IDE is up to date. So it looks like my problem is solved.

Drag files into NetBeans to open

I updated my Netbeans from version 7.0 to 7.1.2. One of the first things I noticed is that I can no longer drag files from my explorer window into netbeans to open it. Does anyone know why I can no longer do so? Or if you know of a setting or something to get this to work as it did in the previous version that would be great. I have scoured the internet for a solution but have not been able to find and answer.
EDIT
I had updated my version of NetBeans and it had worked for a couple weeks but no I am no longer able to open files by dragging them onto the IDE.
Hate to say this, but on my Windows 7 box "it just works". Try upgrading your netbeans to a newer installation.
I found the solution to my issue. It looks like if NetBeans is run as administrator then you are no longer able to drag and drop file to open them in the IDE. Turning that off fixed the problem for me.
To do this in Windows 7: right click the Netbeans icon > Properties > Compatibility tab > Change Settings for All Users > unclick "Run this program as an administrator"
