My project has some preferences which includes username and password for some service. Password is stored in preferences and it is encrypted. But problem is when I export All preferences and then import them in another workspace password is also transferred to second workspace. I don't want this behaviour. How do I hide password when user export all preferences.

Make sure to use the Eclipse Secure storage for that:

See e.g. Lars Vogel's blog post: Eclipse Secure storage of preferences
