You can create as many workspaces as you want. You choose the one to open on startup (unless you told it not to ask you anymore). You can't open more than one at a time, but you can run multiple STM32CubeIDE instances to open one workspace each.

There are also command line options that can be used to explicitly specify which workspace to open.

I obviously told the IDE not to ask me about which workspace to use anymore...So i tried opening a new STM23CubeIDE instance and know i have enabled the option to ask me about choosing my workspace. Thanks a lot

"There are also command line options that can be used to explicitly specify which workspace to open." - How do i do this? (currently using version 1.7.0)

This is inherited from Eclipse, so see:

https://help.eclipse.org/latest/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.isv%2Freference%2Fmisc%2Fruntime-options.html

You want the -data option, and give it the folder where your workspace is (ie, where the .metadata is)

A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.
