Cannot open existing project or open new project

[Penguibird]

After working perfectly for months, suddenly any time I open a java project, the extension doesn't recognize it and offers me to create a new one. Even if I try to create a new project it just opens the newly created project, but the extension still doesn't recognize it and doesn't let me run/build it.

I am not using any build tools like spring or maven

@Penguibird What if you open a Java file first. And then expand the project explorer?

[Penguibird]

No, the exact same thing happens. I am mostly confident I had a java file open anyway when this occured, but tried it now and I can't get it to recognize the project.

Would you mind to give a gif for this issue?

There's not really much to see but here you are

Remove the .classpath and .project and try again?

[Penguibird]

Didn't fix it

[jdneo]

Hmm... So far I've no idea about this. Try to trigger Java: Clean Java language server workspace?

Or share a sample project and I can try if I can repro it locally

@Penguibird What's your JDK version and the java.home setting?
