eclipse debugging exception handles event-loop

My Eclipse is used to develop Android Apps. It worked fine until one day, a Unhandled event loop exception is prompt. The log is shown below.

To trigger the error prompt, just unfocus the text editor in eclipse and focus it again, then the prompt is triggered, For example, click on the Package explorer (Red circle) and click on the code (Green circle) in Main.java in Eclipse. (.xml are the same).

But, if I unfocus the code by clicking Package Explorer (Red circle) then click on the title of the code (Blue circle) and then click on the code (Green circle), the error will not be prompted.

P.S. the Android app can be compiled and work fine in the device by using the Eclipse. But the error prompt is very annoying.

![enter image description here][1]

I have tried:

  1. Download the new ADT (Eclipse) form android developer and unzip it, not working, still no more handles

  2. Download Eclipse Standard 4.3.1 and unzip it, not working

  3. Restart computer, Restart Eclipse. Not working

  4. Create a new account of Windows 7 and use the new account to open the same eclipse (throw error in the old account) with same workspace, It works. No exception is throw.

  5. I tried to replace the C:\oldUser.android with C:\oldUser.android, old user still exception

  6. Change the default editors in Preferences > General > Editors > File Association > *.xml and Android Manifest, not working

  7. Reset Perspective in Eclipse, not working

  8. Change workspace and use new workspace, not working

I want to use the old user account to open Eclipse properly. It is weird. Please help. Thank you very much!!

----- Display Fusion FIX -----

  1. Open Display Fusion settings page
  2. Click compatibility tab
  3. Add "Eclipse.exe"
  4. Check "Disable TitleBar Buttons (this application only), "Disable Application Hooks (this application only)", and "Use Process file icon on DisplayFusion taskbar, not window icon"

This fix seemed to work for me, the most likely cause for the fix is the "Disable Application Hooks (this application only)", but the 3 worked for me so I have no need to test it further
