Periodic workspace save could not save safe table?

I'm a newbie and I'm using the IBM RAD which is based on Eclipse. After install I deleted some files that seemed not needed in C:\workspace. Now I get this error: enter image description here "Periodic workspace table can not be saved, file could not be found, could not save file table to C:\workspace.metadata..." Could you tell what I should do to resolve the error? Thanks

If you get this error in Linux environment, just update the ownership of the file below, and make the owner as same as the owner of the workspace folder:

<workspace>/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.safetable/org.eclipse.core.resources

This solution works for Eclipse version 4.3
