Question by MisterAlwin · Mar 22, 2015 at 03:22 PM · unity 5bugprojectwarningopen project

Can't open my project

In Unity I accidently clicked somewhere in my project outliner and maybe I dragged my particles folder into my prefabs folder. Then somehow Unity created 100 subfolders and now I can't open my project and I have to force quit Unity. It says "Opening file failed: Assets/Prefabs/Prefabs/Prefabs/......./Prefabs/Particles - acces denied" (this warning window is even too big for my entire screen) If I delete this folder in windows and restart Unity, it creates these 100+ subfolders again. Is there any way to fix this? Thank you in advance. alt text

Assuming you put unity into the default directory.

Couldn't you just go into Documents/YourProjectName/Assets/....

Then directly delete any files/folders you don't need? Admittedly you may lose a small part of your project if you have to delete an entire folder, but that's better then losing your whole project right?

:)

Yes I already tried that, but as I said, every time I reopen my project, Unity recreates these subfolders and the warning is popping up again

try removing the folders one at a time then, work through all the folders in your project. (Don't delete them though, just cut/paste them to your desktop or somewhere)

It may be tedious but at least then you will find which folder/script/object/whatever is causing the issue.
