[5.8.1] IKRetargeter marks asset for deletion on P4 instead of overwriting

General Issues and Bug Reporting (Unreal Engine)

Summary

Hi, here are the repro steps:

  1. Open an IK Retargeter. With an animation selected in its AssetBrowser, Export Selected Animations.
  2. Select a folder where an anim sequence with that name already exists. Export.
  3. In the Batch Export Options window, check Overwrite Existing Files.

In 5.8.1 (maybe even 5.8.0), that anim seq becomes marked for deletion instead of being marked for edit. I’m quite certain it used to work a few months ago with 5.7.

What Type of Bug are you experiencing?
