Remove Watermark from Existing Assets

A watermark is an image placed over an asset so the original file is no longer visible. This is to protect copyrights and unreleased assets from being downloaded freely. Downloads of watermarked assets have to be approved by Admin Users before others can download those assets. If a watermark is no longer needed, you can remove it from the asset so it can be downloaded without restrictions.
