Show dialog to choose workspace while it starts

Tags:

I know its a silly question but i am stuck into it from 2 hours..Can any body tell me how should i enable the dialog which opens at the time we start eclipse and we choose workspace location from there.

See I want this window to be displayed first when eclipse starts

enter image description here

By mistake I have checked "Use this as the default and do not ask again".

Please guide me how to show up this dialog again

You can find it here :

Menu: Window -> Preferences -> General -> Startup and Shutdown -> Workspaces -> Prompt for workspace on startup 

Eclipse preferences has a lot of options. You can search for specific options by typing in the filter text box at the top of the preferences dialog.

If you type in 'startup' for instance the list will be much shorter.
