如何修复 WebStorm 中的“找不到要转到的声明”？

Question

I'm using WebStorm with JavaScript and when I press F3 or Ctrl + Click on function I get message that say "cannot find declaration to go to". This happens only in functions that I wrote on my computer, with other functions it works great.

I wrote my functions declarations exactly like all the other functions that go to declaration works for them. I'm using Ultimate version.

I tried File->Invalidate cache\\Restart... and it didn't work.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: Example of the function:

    FaasInitUtils.prototype.createCompnentData = function createCompnentData(app) {

}

when I call this function I do it like this:

        FaasInitUtils.prototype.configureSiteCdmRT = function configureSiteCdmRT() {
var componentData = this.createCompnentData(app);
}

I manged to fix it. I had a lot of projects and big one in Webstorm, what I excluded target folders and then everything started to work (including colors). So I think that there is a problem with the configuration of memory limitation/consumption.

Answer 2

My case:

• go to WebStorm Default IDE directories (C:\\Users\\JohnS\\AppData\\Roaming\\JetBrains)

• delete all files in this folder

• reopen WebStorm

WARNING: But after these steps your JetBrains products configuration will be reset. So u can try to delete this folder WebStorm2020.1 (the name depends on WebStorm version) first and try is this will solve the problem, if not do my steps.

These steps fix for me this bug. This article helps me to find Default IDE directories for my OS: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/webstorm/tuning-the-ide.html#default-dirs

Long shot: I had the same problem. For some reason in Preferences -> File Types -> JavaScript : there wasn't any pattern matching *.js files. I added *.js and then it worked. Cheers
