Im not really sure what happened but when I open the workspace for this course i only have the example.java file and it says "no preview available for this file" and it wont let me edit anything but the console.

230,688 PointsYou can restart the workspace. Just go to the Workspaces page and locate the one you are using (most likely on top). Click on the trashcan icon on the right side to delete the workspace, and confirm when you get the pop-up.
With the workspace deleted, you can go back to the course and "Launch Workspace" again. When it comes up, it should have all the files you started with in their initial states.
