hi @zly_jemil ,

In the past, it was because the project files were on Windows 11 OneDrive.

OneDrive is the default, and for UEFN/Fortnite, you MUST use the path

C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\Fortnite Projects

NOT

C:\Users\%USERNAME%\OneDrive\Documents\Fortnite Projects

If the OneDrive network drive stops working, for any reason, you will lose connection to your file, and if they are updated, it will be corrupted and disappear
