Summarize your bug Im unable to equip some of the skins back, after i changed them to other ones.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I dont know how it's happening but I found some info in internet. Links are listed below. Autor mentions crossplatform interaction, but I was always using just PC and Steam client to run BF2042.
What happens when the bug occurs? I have unlocked few cosmetics with "battlefield coins" or claimed them if it was free in in-game shop. Those skins was equiped for some time after receieving , then after I changed them I wasn't able to put them back on. My "equip" button turned in to black square (screenshots).
What should be happening instead? I must be able to use them, because I've bought them and was even using for some time.
List of bugged content:

Screenshots of example with AK-24 and dxdiag file attached. I can't use the way to fix this, mentioned in links above, because this content was time-limited and doe not present in in-game shop anymore.
