Apps Eclipse: workspace dir isn't saved any more

I use Eclipse Luna. I had the problem that it hanged on start.
So I started it with eclipse -clean. Now it's alright except for
workspace settings.

I want Eclipse to automatically start with a particular workspace
like it was before the eclipse -clean start.

Now Eclipse starts without opening the saved workspace.
But the workspace is saved somewhere because I can choose it
at File->Switch Workspace->D:\workspaceEclipse.

When I choose it Eclipse is restarting and opening D:\workspaceEclipse
automatically. But the workspace directory is only saved for one start.

When I exit Eclipse (File->Exit) and make a new start it is again
starting with empty workspace and I have again to choose
File->Switch Workspace->D:\workspaceEclipse.

But I want to open the workspace D:\workspaceEclipse automatically
for ever like it was before the Eclipse start with -clean parameter.

What ist to do to reach it?
 
Can you post some screen shots of the problems you are having?

Not any more.
I discovered the cause.
I reinstalled Eclipse and reinstalled Plugins (Help->Install New Software).
I noticed that after installing ADT_Translation_Manager_plugin_Update_Site
https://dl.google.com/old (or alt instead of old; forgot it) Eclipse isn't
opening default workspace after starting. So I removed the plugin
https://dl.google.com/old. But that doesn't solved the problem,
no automatically opening of the workspace furthermore.
So I deleted and installed Eclipse a third time. Now without
installing the https://dl.google.com/old plugin.

And now Eclipse is opening my choosed default workspace at start!

Does anybody know what setting is the https://dl.google.com/old (or alt)
plugin changing so Eclipse can't open default workspace anymore?

And is there a possibility to have opening default workspace automatically after
installing the https://dl.google.com/old (or alt) plugin?

And for what is the https://dl.google.com/old (or alt) plugin?
