After copying, just double click the project file.

I ended up doing a select all migrate… All was well yesterday, but now the cable actor and engine folder are missing from my content draw. I still have the plug in an tried re selecting and restart, but they are still gone?

The new project needs to be same or higher engine version.

Thanks man, yeah I tried that. The new PC has the latest version. Is there a way to just re-add the folder or anything?

Like I say, just copying the whole project folder and double clicking the project file should be enough :thinking:

If you havent tried already: convert your original project to the new ue version by opening the unreal engine via epic launcher. then hit browse… and open your “old” project. it should ask for a convert - maybe this works better than migrating
