Hello ,

I have a few questions for you that will help narrow down what issue it is that you are experiencing.

Quick questions:

  1. What version of the engine are you using?
  2. Can you reproduce this issue in a clean project?
  3. If so, could you provide a detailed set of steps to reproduce this issue on our end?
  4. Could you provide screen shots of any blueprints that may be involved with this issue?
  5. Did you have steam running at the same time on your computer when trying to launch your project?

Hello ,

Additional questions:

  1. What plugins are you using (if any)?
  2. Could you try deleting you Saved, Intermediate, and config files to see if this makes any difference?
  3. Could you provide a project that you are using when experiencing this issue?

Could i provide you with Teamviewer access to my pc so you can check ? Basically its Unreal is compiling but with bad size . ( when an app doesnt launch and just gets stuck inside your processes it means it has a bad size) , i got this issue with other things but i managed to fix it so i can recompile ( non unreal programs ) . IF possible please email me on @rankedgaming.com so i can provide you with my teamviewer details , maybe you will have time to check it. If you cannot then ill provide you with the 1 , 2 , 3 you asked me for (im not using any plugins ).
Thank you for your help

We do not provide private assistance. I will not be able to assist you through Team viewer or through email. That being said if you are able to provide the project and would like to do so privately, you could do so by sending this in a private message to me on the forums. This can be done via dropbox or google drive.

I have a few more questions for you that will help in assisting you further with this issue.

Additional questions:

  1. Could you try verifying your engine and/or try a fresh install of the engine to see if this helps?
  2. Could also tell me what device it is that you are packaging for?
  3. Would it be possible for you to provide one of the projects that get stuck in your processing list that we could take a closer look at?

I had the same problem, disabling anti-virus protection when launching the game helped.
