How can we know the number of projects present in a specific workspace, in eclipse IDE?
I happened to open one of the workspace which I used to work on before, and found a lot of projects in it and that’s what forced me to ask this question.

Maybe go to the workspace folder and let your OS show the info.
A way to do this would be to use a terminal/prompt:
On Windows you could use
dir. It will print a summary stating the number of files and directories at the bottom of the list. On Linux you can usels -l | grep '^d' | wc -l.But this list also contains
.and..and maybe there are some other folders in that directory that are not projects (I have aserversfolder for my configured application servers). But if you don’t need this number to be accurate, i.e. you are just curious, than this might be enough for you
