Hello, this may be a dumb question, but I can’t seem to find an answer. Many times when there is a notification update that shows up as an orange circle with a number in it, and I can’t seem to find what exactly it is refering to. My library does not show and orange circles or any other indications as to what product needs updating/new purchase/etc. Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Am I the only one who has this problem?
In the launcher, usually it is an update to the current Engine version or that there is a new version of the Engine.
I got the newest version. When I buy from the Asset Store I usually know what it is since I just bought it. But this notification, I have no clue.
Six years later and update notification is still an unresolved mystery?
I assume this will be related to a particular asset update, is there a way to find out which one?
The notification is like this:
*Library notification: *
an update is available
and update is available
All engines and plugins are updated (these are always indicated with the UE launch box)
Any idea? Many thanks
Now has been resolved - the library shows an exclamation on assets that are available locally and have been updated.
Thank you Epic team

I mean, yes, but also you have to see that item first. I have THOUSAND of assets, so I’m not flipping through the ENTIRE list to look for a BANG (exclamation mark/point).

The notification says, “An update is available.” It doesn’t say an item has been updated. How do I know what item is being referred to? How do I know if I want the update to overwrite what I already have?
I currently have an orange dot beside “Library” on the menu bar at the top. When I hover the mouse over it, I see 2 notifications that say the same thing. Like this:
Library Notifications
An update is available.
An update is available.
What is this referring to? Are there two items for which an update is available, or am I being notified again that an item hasn’t been updated.
Sometimes when I look through my assets, I see an orange dot beside one and the “Add To Project” button has been replaced by “Update”. This one is obvious. No need to explain.
Other times I look through hundreds of assets and can’t find anything.
Other times, I look through my assets and can’t locate one that needs updated. I have clicked on the orange dot in the Menu bar before. It disappears and nothing appears to have happened. Did it update something in the background?
I have no idea. A clarification would be welcome.
Thanks.
When we have thousands of assets, it was impossible to easily find which ones needed to be updated, which made the marketplace very difficult to use and was a disaster. There must be an Updated filter to accurately tell users which assets have been updated.
■■■■ I have the same problem. I can’t find what asset/plugin etc has an update. I have hundreds of assets, this is really disorienting.
Why not add a filter to show only the updates?
