    Hey guys,
    Quick question:

    How will deleting files in
    C:\Users\ *your account name* \AppData\Roaming\Unity\
    affect Unity projects that use those downloaded packages from Asset Store?

    Will I have to re-download the packages inside each project or is this folder like a "hub-station" between the store page and the projects?

    Thanks!

    Hi @ZpetsnaZ,

    You can delete those files safely. After you download the Asset Store assets that you need for your project, the respective files and folders are copied into your project folder.

    The only issue is that you'll have to download the assets again before including them in another project where are not yet there.


    I hope this helps!
