the project/structure view keeps disappearing in one of my projects

I don't think any information in your caches is important, I think you can delete all of the caches folder.

Except the vcs which is local history storage.

everything's fine in my other 2 projects, but one project keeps hiding the project/structure view. Whenever I jump to source (f4), or edit a file, the project view hides. I have to manually retrieve it with alt-1.

I'd like to clear out the caches that are associated with this project without deleting essential information. What files should I delete?

Have you tried 'dock' icon? One is second left in the project view header buttons on the right.
