Why won't my downloaded asset appear in the scene or hierarchy?

I downloaded an asset from the Unity Asset store and imported it into a new project. It had a few minor issues like inconsistent line endings, but I fixed those. Then, I re-imported all of my assets after I fixed everything. However, none of what I imported is showing up.

@jaweewee0, just to be sure you are talking about the same thing, your arrow points at the assets window, not the scene or hierarchy. And it certainly looks like there are assets in the assets folder, though many are folders that probably contain more assets.

Downloading an asset doesn’t necessarily populate the scene (and hierarchy - the two are connected). That only happens if that asset has editor scripts that populate the scene. Some assets are just scripts that you have to add as components. Otherwise, you have to take what ever asset and either drag them into the scene (or hierarchy); or do it at runtime through some script that instances the asset.

So are we on the same page or not?I assume you know all this, but I have to ask: have you dug down into the folders, and have you clicked on the assets folder in the list on the left to see what else you have?
