Hello Unreal Engine Community,

I’ve recently installed Unreal Engine 5.4.1 but haven’t been able to see the editor interface successfully. Every time I try to create a new project or open an existing project from version 5.3.2, the engine crashes during shader compilation.

Interestingly, I can run version 5.3.2 without any issues, and version 5.4.1 works fine on my laptop, but it crashes on my PC. I’ve already updated my GPU driver and Windows, but it doesn’t seem to make a difference.
