Description David Balažic CLA 2020-03-25 14:49:34 EDT 
Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java Developers.

Version: 2019-09

After I upgraded a workspace to Eclipse 2020-03, I:
 - started Eclipse 2019-09
 - it showed the warning dialog, that the (default) workspace was written with a newer version of the product and can be incompatible...
 - I click "Change Workspace..."
 - after a second the same warning dialog appears, clicking "Change Workspace..." again just repeats the cycle

Summary: I can not change to another existing or new workspace.

I suspect it skips the "choose workspace" dialog because it was marked as "always use this workspace".

Workaround : start Ecliose with -data /path/to/workspace and unset the option.
