    I'm using 2018.4.0f1, and some of the prefab previews are extremely dark compared to the rest. All the new prefabs (made after upgrading from 2017.2 > 2018.4) are bright in the Project window, and the older ones are so dark you can barely see what it is:

    How can I fix this?

    This problem also happens in 2019.3 (sometimes it will also show pink materials for working textures).

    The solution is to reimport all the prefabs, it takes a while but all the previews are bright again.

    Reimport All does not work correctly. If you go into each and every folder & subfolder, then select Reimport. this should work.

    For the LWRP/URP & HDRP basically all assets are useless for me, they appear pink or black/white and when I drag one to the scene, they are still pink, black/white.

    This is the barebones HRDP/LWRP demo scenes, fresh out of the box for 2019.3.14f.

    I can't work on anything but the standard pipeline.
