File Explorer always empty in Eclipse

The File Explorer view in Eclipse used to work, so that while an app was running, I could see and manage files in its memory. But since a couple of days the File Explorer is always completely empty. Both for the emulator and for physical devices.

Any suggestions about how to make this feature work again are very welcome!

Select the device in the Devices, it will show the files in the file explorer for that device.

The easier solution of it is to goto the taskmanager. Kill the adb process. Eclipse will start giving connection error with the AVD. Now, run your android virtual device again from the eclipse. Thats it. Its Done. You'll see the files in the file explorer in a sec.:)
