Mapping is lost when transferring a PHPStorm project from a computer to a laptop, how to fix it?

Question

PHP

I use the GoodSync program to synchronize the folder with projects. After synchronization from a computer to a laptop or vice versa, the Deployment settings are lost, or rather the Mapping of each server and you have to assign it first.
What could be the problem? How to fix?
The folder with projects is located in D:\Projects\Work (the same folders) on both the computer and the laptop.

Answer 1

If the local paths to the project folders differ between machines, the settings will fail.
I solve similar problems on Windows for myself using the subst utility . When the system starts, a disk is created pointing to the project folder. So on all machines, my project files are in p:/project_name/repo. If you are using local WAMP, the drive may not point to its home folder.

Answer 2

I assume you are using PHPStorm version < 5. I had exactly the same problem, although the paths were the same everywhere.
PHPStorm 5 does not have this problem.
