How to download folder that was previously "Excluded From Path" in PHPStorm?

According to this JetBrains documentation, you can easily include a previously excluded folder in your project:

To get an excluded file or folder involved in upload/download again

Select the file or folder to return to upload/download and choose Remove Path from Excluded on the context menu of the selection.

However, this has not worked for us (on several different computers & projects).

We are able to successfully remove it from the Excluded items, but it does not download the files.

We've tried:

Re-downloading the specific parent of that folder
Re-downloading the entire project
Syncing
Attempting to grab it through the Remote Host Pane via "Download from Here"

Solution

I sorted the issue by going to 'Excluded Paths' tab in 'Deployment' window and removing from excluded also local representation of previously excluded remote path. I also needed to create that local local folder to be able to remove it from 'excluded paths' list.
