Making a copy of my game deleted assets

How do I...?
1

I made a copy of my game by clicking File → Save as → Your computer → Keep the new project linked to this game…
After MyGame - Copy opened, I closed the project and opened the original MyGame. Then I realized there’s no sprites.

I checked the folder and found two files: mygame.json and mygame-copy.json, and an empty assets folder. I kept all files on my computer.

I checked everywhere (also using Windows search) and my files are nowhere to be found. Not even in the recycle bin.

I tested it again on another project and files are also gone. It happens only when game folder is on other drive than the basic folder in Preferences. I think it’s bug since I guess I lost all my files.

I found my files in “AppData\Local\Temp\GDTMP–1”. They were stuck in here. Once I made copy, files were moved to Temp but since files of my game were on disk D: not C: app coldn’t find folder to copy my files into.

If you’re making those assets on GDevelop’s Piskel, there should be a button on the right side of the Piskel Screen that let’s you download whatever you made into your computer’s files. I hope that helps.
