How do I get rid of this xyz axis that sometimes comes attached from importing assets from Megascans? I've had this issue for a long time never figured it out

    That's a Blender Empty, you have to look that up in the Blender docs to understand what they are.
    As for deleting them :  they show up in the outliner like any other object. The importer probably set them as non-selectable.

    Answer:
    - Click the Empty (XYZ axis)
    - view the Scene
    - Find the selected Empty in the scene
    - Click the drop down for the Empty to view all assets attached to it
    - Right click the Empty and click unlink
    - This will send the assets back to the center of the scene on the cross section of the X and Y axis
    (If still unable to find the objects you can highlight them in the scene menu to help find them)

    Heya - you also want to explore Object > Parent > Clear Parent (and Keep Transformations)
