Downloaded few models inside UE 5, closed the project and after I start it again all textures are gone. It was ok few weeks ago. Any ideas how to solve the issue or who to contact regarding this?

I have the same issue.

I did a whole video on this specific issue after solving this and spending an enormous amount of time on figuring it out. I'll try to explain without the video. The texture image files are saved inside of a ZIP folder deep inside of your user account in a hidden folder. You can find the path by hovering and seeing the SOURCE FILE path. So before restarting you need to go to the ZIP folder, extract it, then copy the Texture image files to the same folder as the 3D model itself inside the Unreal Engine Project. If that doesn't make sense hopefully the video explains it better. I hope that works and makes sense.

The Sketchfab Models are truly beautiful through this plugin import method.

Same issue here... I found another workarround: open the texture in UE, In File Path section there's a "X" button - "Clear this source file information from the asset" Do this with all textures that came from sketchfab plugin, and voilà... you can save, close and open again, it will be there.
