Failed to load window layout

Unity Engine
1

I tried loading my project and scene and this icon came up.

When i try pressing these options none of them work (neither load default or revert factory). This only occurs in the project i’m trying to work on. If i load a different one or make a new one it doesn’t do it. Anyone know what to do because I want to keep working on my game.

Fixed this by creating a new project and importing all my assets into it.

I have the same issue, however it’s when I try and start the editor. There’s no way out of it. Clicking button eventually leads the program to close.

  1. Open Unity.
  2. Open Unity Again. (don’t close last error, leave it up).
  3. It will say Unity is already in use or whatever.
  4. Open a new or existing project.
  5. Re-import your last project, which is the one that in my case closed by a power failure.

Now I have solution for this problem. You have to use higher version of unity to come out of this error.

At present your project initially created in higher version and same project you are trying to opening it on lower version compare to you have created.

These steps worked for me:

  1. Find your project’s root folder
  2. Backup (Copy/Paste) your Project Settings file somewhere else. I just dragged mine to my desktop. It’s a good idea to backup the entire project at this point too.
  3. Delete the Project Settings folder from your project
  4. Open the project
  5. Right click the Assets folder in the Project window
  6. ‘Reimport All’
  7. Go to the root folder again
  8. Delete the Project Settings folder again
  9. Paste your old project settings into the root folder

Remember to always backup your work!

I found the problem as well as a solution.
I checked the folder that contained my project and found out it belong to root so I Unity3d could not access it, just change the permissions of the folder.
In linux

12

My solution was to change where I was creating project. The folder I was using had all permissions and was not read only, but it didn’t work. So I just used a different folder on my other drive.

Та же проблема. Помогло копирование содержимого из папки ProjectSettings рабочего проекта в ту же папку нерабочего.
The same problem. Copying content of ProjectSettings folder from working project to the same folder of non working worked for me.

I got the same issue with the latest Unity 5.6, and rebooting my Windows 10 fixed the issue.

I get the same Error, but when creating a new project. I completely removed Unity and reinstalled. It fixed the problem for three days, then it happened again. Once it happens, I can’t even open some of my old projects.

Unity 2020.1.5
