The problem with the UID is most likely critical.

I’m encountering an “Unrecognized UID” error in Godot 4.4, and I’m hoping someone can offer some guidance.

The project was migrated from 4.3 a long time ago. Recently, I reorganized my project and deleted the old folder containing my sprites, intending to update all the paths to the new locations. It was quite late (around 11 PM or midnight), and I was rushing to finish before going to bed.

The next morning, I encountered the “Unrecognized UID” error, which appears in the Output panel only when I launch the Godot Editor. It doesn’t appear during gameplay or while editing scenes. In my haste the night before, I simply shut down my PC using the start menu’s shutdown option.

I’m willing to provide the project folder and a screenshot of the error for further investigation. The error text in the output is: ERROR: Unrecognized UID: “uid://ddp00y3wisy65”.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have experienced the same issue before, but I just ignore it because it doesn’t affect the game. Also, whenever I had this happen, it went away on its own after a few days.

You could try running the Project -> Tools -> Upgrade UIDs... tool and see if that fixes the problem.

I’ve already tried this, and more. It stays anyway. I’m thinking of redoing the project altogether or giving up on it. I’m more inclined to the second option, because it will take too much time to do it all over again.
