Description Humberto Ibarra 2016-06-01 19:40:38 UTC 
The problem is that I saved a new Preferences profile for Yocto ADT on Windows > Preferences > Yocto Project ADT and after restarting elcipse the profile was blank.

Here are the steps to reproduce:

1. Have a Standard Profile with x86 1.8.2 settings
2. Clicked "Save as" and choose the name "qemux86_182". Selected Apply.
3. Changed values and picked my settings for arm 1.8.2.
4. Clicked "Save as" and choose the name "qemuarm_182". Selected Apply.
5. Restarted eclipse
6. qemuarm_182 appears to be okay, but qemux86_182 is blank in all fields.

I was even able to apply the blank profile to a project.

The existing Eclipse plugin is supported for build and debug functionality, only. 
Current efforts are going into the new CROPS Eclipse plugin.

Workaround: Keep the default setup and avoid using multiple profiles.
