    So I'm trying to do something that appears relatively simple but it doesn't work. I just want to copy a texture from one folder to another. Using AssetDatabase.CopyAsset() the texture is copied to the destination but the copy just shows up as an unrecognized file in Unity. The file size of the copy is the same so I think that data has been copied but Unity doesn't recognize it as a texture.

    Anyone run into this problem?

    Are you giving the new asset the same extension?
