Phpstorm 4.0.1 Config not loading from PHPstorm 3.0 Follow
I just installed 4.0.1. When it comes up the first time, it asks if I want to
use the config from 3.0, but it guesses the wrong place to load it from. Where is the correct location?
I shut it down, but now it doesn't ask again. How do I do it a second time?

If you work under Windows 7 look at "c:\Users\username\.WebIde10" ;)
I had the same issue on Mac OS 10.7.3. Jetbrains4 said there was no previous installation in Applicationss. There is.
There's no point in me upgrading if I can't import my settings.
Hi Mark,
You ALWAYS can export settings (File | Export Settings..) from old version and import them into new one (File | Import Settings..). The fact that this particular dialog does not suggest correct path does not mean that you cannot import your settings.
In any case -- check this thread -- it has all info necessary: http://devnet.jetbrains.net/thread/435672?tstart=30
Thanks. It worked.
It seemed to forget about my excluded directories in my project. I noticed because i have some huge image directories and phpstorm was taking a long time to index them.
I'll check to see if anything else has changed.

Thanks. I did it the simple way. uninstalling 4.0.1 and then starting again.
Actually, the first time I did not delete the settings, and when I reinstalled it told me that I needed to install to an empty directory or one that contains PHPStrom 1.0?
Talk about old code!

Excluded directories is project specific setting (stored together with other project settings in .idea subfolder). It is not touched by that dialog window or during export/import settings operation.
Don't know what went wrong and why it did not remembered those folders in your case -- have not noticed such problem on my old projects (that I have not touched in v4 yet, including EAP builds)
Thanks, I sorted that now
