    Hello everyone.
    What started to occur with assets and editor extension imported from the store has now begun interfering with all new prefabs we make.
    We are using tortoise svn for version control and are working with Unity 2018.2.10f1. This error was not present at the start of the project.

    I have googled this issue to no end but it seems no one else ever had this error.
    Does anyone know what this means, exactly, or how to try and fix it?

    Can you check "Edit > Project Settings > Editor" if "Asset Serialization" is set to "ForceText".
    https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/class-EditorManager.html

    If it's set to binary, it would explain the invalid character. If it's set to ForceText already, try if it makes a difference if you reimport that prefab.
