Create a new workspace, that usually solves the problem.

I created a new workspace and imported my project there but nothing changed.
I still get the same error message

Do you have spaces in the path to the studio or workspace? Windows sometimes does not shows the real folder name, so I would check it with the shell.

No, there is no Space!
Here is my path to the studio : C:\TALEND\TOS_DI-Win32-r74687-V5.0.1
the path to the workspace : C:\TALEND\TOS_DI-Win32-r74687-V5.0.1\workspace

Ok what about Java 7? The default installation of Java ships Java 8 and Talend could not deal with it.

Yes but please now use a new workspace because in your current one are a lot of classes which are compiled with the Java 8 compiler.

Hi bobCX,
So far, talend don't support for java 8.
Please look at KB article: TalendHelpCenter:Java 8 Support
Please see a related forum: https://community.talend.com/t5/Installing-and-Upgrading/resolved-Getting-error-on-opening-a-project-Generation-Engine/td-p/114668
Thanks for your feedback.
Best regards
