Hi there…

Since this Problem for me is unsolved for over a year now, i will start this topic.

I cannot Reimport/Reimport with new file of ANY Asset.
Changes to the source file do not apply to the Asset file in the content browser. I always have to delete the asset and then import as a full new object - which is annoying and breaks most of the codes and references, each time i need to edit stuff in the sources.

Especially annoying with meshes and Textures.

I tried to Fix Redirectors…
I tried to reinstall the whole engine…
I tried to change the source path of the asset…
Nothing worked.

Right now, i deleted and installed again, all of my Engine and plugins.
Tried each fix with the Epic games launcher UE 5.5.3, and the latest Github Source branch.

I also set a whole new project up… containing nothing… just a full blank project…
Tried to import an FBX… worked
Tried to rightlick the FBX and chose Reimport or Reimport with new file, failed…
I don’t know why it is failing, the output log does not list an error…
The original source *.fbx file is in the same folder as the uasset file…

Can someone please help me here?
