I have a project that I accidentally deleted the wrong assets in the audio bin. I closed FMOD and did not save so I could recover yet when I re-opened the project they are still not there as if it went ahead and saved anyway. Tried reverting to saved, still not there. This happens regularly. Anyone know why on earth this is the case?

Hi James,

Deleting an asset from the audio bin is not an undoable function. Deleting from the Audio Bin or the Assets Browser deletes the file from disk. There’s warning of this when you try to delete and is mentioned in the documentation.

You will need to reimport the deleted assets.

Thanks,  
Richard
