Late package which is same as early one according @mattias norlander​ is:

Just rely on Help > About in case you need to be comfortable about.

My snapshot is based on fresh install I've done relying on www.st.com today

EGit works for me.

Looks pretty annoying indeed...

What is your OS?

Also could you share you workspace log file workspace/.metadata/.log to see if something guides us to the root cause?

Hi Markus,

I sent you the Log via private message yesterday. Thanks in advance.

OS is win10.

Thanks for sharing. In the light of such could you have a try starting a new IDE session but electing a brand new repository as workspace ? (possibly then just perform File > Open Project From File System to get bqck within such fresh workspace one of your project). I've feeling we have to exclude local corrupted workspace option here.

Please share back outcomes.

I'm sorry, I don't want to spend more time solving this. I want to work on my project so I installed 1.5.1 which works without problems.
