On Windows 7  the Program Files directory is protected so apps can t automatically write there  The simplest solution I ve heard is just to install Eclipse into a user-writable location instead  For example  C  Java Eclipse  You should be able to just move your entire eclipse directory  there s no registry entries or anything else that ties Eclipse to the place where you extracted it    Edit  Have you checked that the directory it is complaining about i actually writable  Other than that  I really don t have any ideas  I haven t worked on Windows in several years and never with Win7  My only other suggestion is to just download the latest Eclipse  install it to a new location  do NOT intall it over top of your existing Eclipse   and point it to your existing workspace
