Summary
Hi, some of my assets are no longer available in my vault after it was synced with FAB (as of Nov 1, 10:48PM America/New York).
The assets that are now missing had some “unique” issues in that for whatever reason, they were migrated from the old UE Marketplace to FAB, but the FAB listing actually returns a 404.
Previously, even though the FAB link was broken, the asset was still available my vault, so it was more of an inconvenience. Now it’s just gone. Assets that direct to a valid UE Marketplace link or a valid Fab link still appear in my vault. Seems like it’s specifically assets that were migrated to FAB in a broken way…or maybe anything with 404 Fab link.
Old UE Marketplace Link (it redirects to a broken Fab link): https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/projectile-hit-fx-actor-component

Steps to Reproduce
- Go to Epic Games Launcher > Library
- Scroll down to the “Fab Library” section
- Notice that the asset is not in the library
- Go to the original UE Marketplace link and notice it redirects to a broken FAB link
- Go to FAB library and notice that the asset is not in the FAB library either
Expected Result
I would expect that the asset I paid for is in my Vault even if it is no longer on FAB. Ideally the FAB link would also not return a 404, but an archived version of the delisted listing.
Observed Result
The asset is not in my launcher. It is not in FAB. The only records I have of it now are my original invoice from the UE Marketplace and the cached version in my local UE Marketplace cache.
Platform
Desktop - Epic Games Launcher
Operating System
Windows 10
Additional Notes
The asset was available in my vault prior to today. The FAB link has returned a 404 since last week at least, but possibly before that as well.
