In case of the standard project format, the run/debug configurations will be stored in the .ipr file, which is usually shared through the version control, rather than .iws.

In case of the directory-based project format, the shared run/debug configurations are kept in separate xml files under .idea\runConfigurations folder, while the local run/debug configurations are kept in the .idea\workspace.xml.
