I've just installed DeveloperStudio 3.9.7. It is not giving me the option to create a new Liferay workspace, or to create new Liferay projects. I also cannot import a Liferay workspace. I was able to import the sample "vitamins-master" project by importing it as a gradle project, but I've never had to do this before. As you can see in the attached screenshots, there is no option for "Liferay"- either from the "import" menu or the "new" menu. We've been using this tool for years and have never seen this before.

Hi Steve, FWIW I could not reproduce after updating my Liferay IDE versaion to 3.9.7. I don't install the archive though, I use the Eclipse Update Site to install Liferay IDE. That shouldn't matter, I suppose.

I think I've found the answer. It looks like you have to run the latest version of Eclipse or Developer Studio with Java 11. I had been using Java 8, and when I switched to 11 today things are working as expected. We also use SonarLint here, and that also didn't work using Java 8 but re-appeared with Java 11.
