Missing Quixel Bridge add on in new UE5

Development Pipeline & Plugins
284

I have tried the following:

Updated Unreal 5 & Epic Games Launcher

Deleting stand alone Bridge Application

Looked in Vault

Uninstalled Unreal Engine 5 & Epic Games Launcher

Redownloaded both programs

enabled the web browser plugin in unreal 5 and restarted everything

I had this happen to me randomly today in 5.1. Disappeared completely from all UE 5.1 projects. The fix was I needed to update Bridge in the launcher (library - UE version number - installed plugins) then all was restored.

I have the issue with latest UE5.1, quixel bridge is nowhere to be found, not in plugins, my vault or anywhere in the engine.
It worked with the early access build, but 5.1 seems like a mess with plugins, and now it’s all gone.

same here , downloaded and installed ue5.1 via epic games launher , it also said it added quixel bridge to dowloads that it appears to have done , but its not showing in the editor , not letting me add it in the launcher (saying its installed to all compatable engines ) and says its unavalable in the market place

I am also experiencing this issue in the 5.2 Preview.

Yet it shows that it is successfully installed to 5.2

This is a fresh install of 5.2 and the Epic Launcher. I also installed 5.1.1 to confirm if it was an image on all engines or just 5.2. Bridge successfully installs on 5.1.1.

Is there a workaround to install the plugin to 5.2 in my case? I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling already once today, that didn’t seem to do the trick.
