Cannot open any project through Unity Hub - "Creating Project Folder Failed"

I am a new user working with a fresh install of Unity on Windows 10. I’ve completed a basic microgame tutorial, closed it, and wish to load it again from the Unity Hub. However, every time I try it returns the error message “Creating Project Folder Failed”.

After some googling I’ve attempted:

  • Running Unity Hub as Administrator.

  • Moving the project from its default (awful) install location into a folder in documents (Documents/UnityProjects). After moving the folder I then used the “add” button to put it back in Unity Hub, and the location showed for the filepath updated.

  • Created a new project in, added a simple cylinder, saved. It cannot be opened through unity hub.

However neither of these fixed the issue. As a first time user, lacking the ability to load any projects is not great, so I would appreciate any help in fixing this.

Check if you are not logged out of your Unity account. It sometimes logs you out without even knowing
