Migrate tool stoped working in 5.1

After installing 5.1 I cant migrate ANY content. After selecting assets and showing where to save the migration process Should begin , but it doesnt. Simly nothing happens. Need help fast.

Here is an error from log:
LogAssetTools: Error: {D:/ue4/temp/2510_KL_1833_rework/UE/Content/} does not appear to be a game Content folder. Migrated content only work if placed in a Content folder. Aborting the Migration.

Is the destination project also 5.1?

The destination is an empty ā€œContentā€ folder.
I use migrate to save only used files to web storage.

It works if itā€™s really a project. I donā€™t know what the minimum spec is.

Omg found a solution. Now it has to be a real project with ā€œconfigā€ and a project file in a root. othervise it will not migrate. what a strange solution from epic (

I donā€™t get it. What exactly do You need to do to migrate level with assets?

You need to make a folder and copy config folder and .uproject file to it.
Then Unreal will think itā€™s a proper project and will let you to migrate assets.

Just encountered same problem.
It seems like an over aggressive safeguarding, and it should be possible to optout of it. Or better yet just pop a warning but allow it, just like before. The way it is right now this feature has regressed.
