I can't tell you how many profanities I've screamed due to the "Launch Failed. Binaries Not Found." issue when trying to run C++ programs using Eclipse CDT. I swapped back to my windows hard drive for a while (truly dark times) because I just couldn't solve this issue. It is my hope that this will save at least someone the frustrations that I put myself through.
This is what fixed the issue for me:
1) remove/purge eclipse
2) re-download the eclipse installer
3) launcher the installer. You see the 3 horizontal bars with the exclamation point in the top- right corner? Click on that and update the installer.
4) continue installing eclipse like normal
5) "Check for Updates" as soon as eclipse opens
6) forgive yourself for not updating the installer in the first place
Note: Because the only issue I ever had with eclipse was the "Launch Failed. Binaries Not Found" issue I installed eclipse for c/c++ developers and then added Java, Python, etc... If you can't reinstall eclipse, I don't know how to help you.
