Files (Asset Browser)

The Files window is the asset browser. It shows the contents of the project folder as a grid of icons and thumbnails, and is where you import, organise and open assets such as models, textures, audio, fonts, scenes, scripts and prefabs.

Navigating

• The path bar at the top shows the current folder; click a segment to jump to it.

• Double-click a folder to enter it.

• Use the Filter field on the right to narrow the grid to matching names.

Image and model assets show a thumbnail; other types use a type icon.

Working with assets

• Click an asset to select it and show its settings in the Asset inspector.

• Drag an asset into the scene or onto a component field to use it. Dragging a prefab into the 3D Viewport spawns an instance.

• Right-click an asset or folder for the context menu: Open, Copy Path, Rename, Delete.

Creating things

The browser also lets you create new project content, such as a new Script or a new Scene. Scenes have their own context menu to Duplicate or Delete them (the last scene cannot be deleted).
