Refresh Unity Assets

Last modified: 11 February 2024

By default, Unity is set to automatically refresh assets (you can change this in the Unity Editor with Edit | Preferences | Asset Pipeline | Auto Refresh). If you use Unity in conjunction with Rider, the auto-refresh is triggered in two cases:

  • when you focus the Unity Editor window,

  • by Rider, for example, when you save your project, run unit tests, or perform some other actions (see below).
