I want to add some addons to my current project (UE5.5) but the launcher says that the addons havent been updated yet, whilst I know for a fact that they are. It even says so in the Fab store. For some addons it’s so outdated that it only shows until UE 5.2, even though they are actively being worked on and definitely are updated.
No worries, this issue pops up from time to time, it’s related to the plugin’s cache. The data in the launcher is outdated, and not picking up the proper version. Here’s how to fix it:
Close the launcher
Go to C:\ProgramData\Epic\EpicGamesLauncher\Data\VaultCache
Delete everything inside, and re-launch
If the plugins still appear with the wrong version, download them from FAB, and add them manually to your project’s plugin folder, then rebuild from UE.
