My materials lost connection with the textures

In my project, most of my materials lost connection with the textures, The textures ARE in the project, but seems that the path is missing

There is a way I can recover this paths? There is a lot of materials in scene with this problem and fixing them manually will take a ton of time

For example in 3dsmax there is a plugging to relink the missing texture paths, is this possible in Unreal?

Hello!

Could be for many things but here it seems that somebody had a similar problem as you, maybe this could help:

Let me know if it helps.

Thanks for your answer, but it didnt work.

The problem was because somethign went wrong with the redirectors, I moved the Textures folder and Material folder at the same time, and when fixing the redirectors en folder, something screwed.

I had luck that I made a backup of the project 2 days ago, im using that backup

I did the same with my backup copy and got damaged the same way, so to prevent this. I move first my TEXTURE FOLDER, clean all redirectors. (Saved the project) and the move the MATERIAL FOLDER, and clean redirectors and didnt broke.
