Where's the "Attach" option when opening a project ?
That was extremely useful and something very easy to do when you needed to work on two different respositories at the same, frontend and backend for example, and sharing the same agent doing the work on one and the other
How do I achieve that now ?

BTW, the projects that I already have attached still work. But I can't attach new ones…
Thank you for the report. This is a regression in PhpStorm 2026.3, and the fix will be included in the next 2026.3 update.
Until then, the Attach option is missing only for a project that PhpStorm has not opened before. To make it available:
1) Open the second project (for example, the frontend) with File | Open and select This Window.
2) Open the first project (the backend) again.
3) Open the second project again and select Attach.
