According to your error log messages, seems like the path of the assets are too long. This means that you have too deep nested folders, and the folders/files names are too long. Windows has a limit of 256 characters by default for path length, and UE/UEFN usually enforces it, probably your cooking job is failing due to these long paths Try organizing your project files in a different folder structure, trying to keep the path length low, and see if that fixes the problem for you… ---

how can this suddenly happen after a new season though, it doesn’t make sense and no one seem to have a solution or response in general 😦
