I have an Eclipse Luna installed on my computer. I installed Eclipse Neon, and when I first ran it, a window opened with the list of all the plugins installed on Luna, and it asked me if I wanted them installed on Neon. By mistake, I clicked on no. And of course now, it's not asking me anymore. So how do I do to get back this window?

window I tried the import application install wizard but I couldn't progress:

You can do this via File -> Import.

Select Install, then From Existing Installation

Eclipse install from existing installation

After browsing to an old Eclipse installation folder (Kepler in my case), you can choose which plug-in's to import.

Eclipse install from Kelper

  • It shows me Luna on the list but it is disabled because "a more recent version is already installed".

  • Sorry, i don't understand. Eclipse allows me to browse to a folder where an old version of Eclipse is installed (Kepler in my case), and shows the missing plugin's. I'll add the screenshot to my answer. Commented Nov 17, 2016 at 11:25
  • Will this install the plugins in their old version, or will it look for the respective newer versions of those plugins?
