Can't save changes because Unreal thinks a level with the name already exists.

Every time I try to save, it gives me a message saying “A level with that name already exists. Please choose another name,” even though there isn’t even any level in the location where I’m trying to save. Tried multiple names and still get the same issue.

Hello there @SammaRay6259!

That one shows up from time to time, it’s mostly tied to stale or corrupted entries in your project. The first thing to test would be to fix up redirectors, even if you have no warnings related to them.

In order to do so, right click your Content folder in UE, and select “Fix Up Redirectors”. It will take a bit for it to complete, but once it’s done, test saving again.

If the issue persists, then the corruption would have reached your project’s cache, so it needs to be cleared. To do that, please navigate to your project’s main directory, and delete folders Saved, Intermediate, and DerivedDataCache. After that, restart your project, and allow it to rebuild. Once that’s over, make some small changes, and try to save one more time.
