    Hi,

    If I have a currently ongoing 
    IAsyncOperation op
    , if I call Release() on it, would that stop downloading (if it was a remote asset) and clear everything, space allocated for the asset, memory, etc...?

    Best,
    Allan

    Indeed would be good to know... I have stopped using addressables, to be honest since the time I made this question lol, at the time it seemed like the system still had some rough edges... switched projects and didnt need it anymore... but I am soon to need it again so well, if I find out the answer will be sure to post it around when I get to it.

    Does anyone know how to cancel Addressable LoadAsset operations? Addressables didn't have the cancelling method, we have to create on our own. But I am not sure how we could achieve that.
