I found no easy way to show a file opened in Eclipse (or listed in the project navigator) in Windows explore, while it is easy to be achieved in Visual Studio, see below image, you can right click on the file and choose Open Containing Folder which will open the containing folder.
Do you know there is an easy way? which is better than navigating to that file directly (cumbersome).

In Eclipse, if the Project Explorer pane is not already open, click the Show View icon in the lower left corner of Eclipse, then click Project Explorer. In the Project Explorer pane, right-click your project name, then click Properties.
Eclipse shows hidden files in the "Navigator" view. You can add that via Window->Show View->Navigator. With Eclipse 4.14 for Mac OS X: Window > Navigation > Show View Menu > Filters ans Customization, then after just uncheck .
To open File Explorer, click on the File Explorer icon located in the taskbar. Alternatively, you can open File Explorer by clicking on the Start button and then clicking on File Explorer.
- [Voiceover] When we first installed Eclipse, and we launched it for the first time, do you remember the prompt that it asked you where you wanted to store your files? It automatically defaults to the C drive, to users, your username, and it creates a folder called Workspace. That's where your files are located.
Here it goes, am using Eclipse Juno Service Release 1

'Show in' is only available in the 'Package Explorer' view which comes with the Java perspective. For the more generic 'Project Explorer' or 'Navigator' views (former recommended) you should use StartExplorer plugin instead.
With this plugin (as opposed to built in 'Shown in') you can also define a keyboard shortcut through Window --> Preferences --> General --> Keys. The default shortcut for StartExplorer's "Show in File Manager" feature is Ctrl + Alt + E.
