Created attachment 274444 [details] Cannot reproduce anim gif Can not reproduce with the given steps: Create TXT file in any project. Right-click in editor -> Show In -> Project Explorer. Tested with latest I-build: Eclipse SDK Version: Photon (4.8) Build id: I20180611-0500 OS: Mac OS X, v.10.13.3, x86_64 / cocoa
wow, looks like my two fresh photon workspaces are broken. On third works fine :/ After remove ./org.eclipse.e4.workbench/workbench.xmi no NPE i see. Also list of perspectives is correct. Is there any way to prevent such situations in future? Or always where something looks bad I have to reset UI file manually?
Closing as worksforme. I can’t really help with the workbench.xmi. Generally, I believe this depends on plugins installed. If you see a frequent error, I suggest 1. Understand which plugin is causing this, 2. Reopen this bug, attach the xmi and tell which plugins you believe are responsible.

Or always where > something looks bad I have to reset UI file manually? I wonder how you've get the broken state. If you could go inside you and ask: what was different in those two broken workspaces, may be we would be able to get steps to reproduce. Think about specific perspectives/multi-window setups, detached views etc. I will push a NPE guard which will convert the NPE to PartInitException. It will not fix anything, but at least we will get dedicated "Failed to show in" errors instead of " Unhandled event loop exception".

Waiting for steps to reproduce or new bug reports with updated stack to fix the root cause.
