Default workspace

ptcaos — Thu, 25 Jun 2026 06:54:53 GMT

Hello,

I'm using MCUXpressoIDE v.24.9.25 (I know I could run a newer version, but for some reasons, I need to run 24.9.25). As I can see in "C:\NXP\MCUXpressoIDE_24.9.25\ide\configuration\config.ini", osgi.instance.area.default is "@user.home/Documents/MCUXpressoIDE_24.9.25/workspace", so it's correct.

However, if I close Windows user session and open a new one with other user, when I run MCUXpressoIDE, the default workspace is the workspace of the first user, so I need to change to the second workspace directory because each user have their own directory.

It seems that osgi.instance.area.default is not working fine, because @user.home/Documents/MCUXpressoIDE_24.9.25/workspace should be the home of each user, but always takes the first login user.

How could I reconfigure this?

Thanks.

Hello,

Could you help us confirm if you have the cell "Use this as the default and do not ask again" enable?

If you tick the Use this as the default and do not ask again option, then MCUXpresso IDE always starts up with the chosen workspace opened; I would recommend on not having this box checked to select the Workspace

You could add the other workspace for User 2 and keep it in Recent workspaces, so you can select your desired workspace before the app open

Also, In Tab Window> Preferences> General>Startup and Shutdown>Workspaces

Enable the Prompt for workspace on startup.

Best Regards, Luis
