How can I reuse the same folder after having deleted my previous project?

When you delete a project and re-use the same folder to re-create a project using the CLI, you face an error similar to:

 [ProjectNotFoundException]                                            
  Project not found: <PROJECT_ID>                                      
  Either you do not have access to the project or it no longer exists.
When you use the Platform.sh CLI to create a project, the CLI creates a hidden folder to store its settings.
 
 
To be able to re-use the folder:
  1. Delete the .platform/local/ folder
  2.  Run project:set-remote to map the folder to your project.
