"The path is not writable by the current user ..." in "Modern Interface"

When switching to an workspace in a network drive, using the “Modern Interface” I receive the following message: “The path is not writable by the currente user …” and is not possible to change it.
But, prforming the same operation in “Classic Interface” it works fine.

This seems to be a problem that comes from Eclipse on which KNIME is based on. Please find the corresponding GitHub issue here.

Since the latest version of KNIME (5.3.2 at the moment), which is based on Eclipse version 4.31 from February 2024, this problem exists.

The issue was fixed in Eclipse version 4.33 released in September 2024.

Are there already plans to update the Eclipse version that comes with KNIME? If so, is there already a schedule?
