Error : eclipse executable launcher was unable to locate its companion shared library

Note : You would not find any solution on the net, anywhere for this.

Reason : 
1 - When you change your OS version, upgrade, Restore, downgrade.
2 - Install another version of the eclipse.

What the error mean?
1 - It means when you click on Eclipse application, or eclipse shortcut icon on start menu or desktop, behind the scene it try to Run one .Jar file, but due to configuration changes application can't detect it?

Resolution : 
1 - Just go to your eclipse installation directory.
2 - Go to Plugins,
3 - Run the org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.201.v20161025-1711.jar, so it will directly Run your eclipse app.

Now what it you want to run it from Ecllipse Application or ShortCut?
1 - Just Right click on the eclipse Icon.
2 - Put the location : Installation Folder\eclipse\jee-neon\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.201.v20161025-1711.jar
3 - Save the properties.
4 - Now if you click on Eclipse icon, it will open the application as usual.

Hi RajeevJain, I have this problem. Can you be more specific? What means "Run the org.eclipse.equinox.launcher ...jar" ?
Thanks in advance
