Hey all,
I’ve been trying to create a Windows build but I keep getting errors with the Automation Tool.
I had a similar issue in the past, but I can’t find what is giving me the error this time.
There are also a lot of warnings, which may be the cause of the issue.
The error log is in this link:
https://www…com/s/w3wgmo63y3ic5g9/AutomationToolError.txt?dl=0
Also, is there a best practice to finding these issues?
Thanks and happy holidays 
Gabe,

You have a lot of warnings going on in your project and one error. I would suggest to delete your Intermediate and Saved folder from your project. After you’ve done that, I would like to see the newest error output logs if you still can’t package.
Thanks!
