Use Eclipse Update and got fail
An error occurred while uninstalling session context was:(profile=epp.package.jee, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Uninstall, operand=[R]org.eclipse.rcp.configuration_root.win32.win32.x86_64 1.0.0.v20130521-1847 --> null, action=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.touchpoint.natives.actions.CleanupzipAction). Backup of file D:\Apps\eclipse\eclipse.exe failed. Can not remove : D:\Apps\eclipse\eclipse.exe
The issue links to permission on file system.
According to the post here, two solutions raised but for me, only following solution, the best to take:
- Run eclipse
- Rename eclipse exe to eclipse.exe.back
- Run updates
- Updates executed successfully
Another solution by creating a new workspace not work for me and above is simple to use.

works for me
Yes, normally, it’s working but if you face the error as I mention, above solution is likely to be solving the issue.
that’s what i meant… your solution works for me
works for me too
Works for me too, I think the reason of mine is that the anti-virus software on my PC make this problem (company’s reason I can not uninstall the anti-virus software).
anyway , thanks a lot ,your solutions works on my PC! it is great.
