Can't open Unreal Engine 5 due to 'alembicimporter' error message

Whenever I try to open UE5, I get an error message saying that, “plugin ‘elembicimporter’ failed to load because module ‘alembicimporter’ could not be loaded. There may be an operating system error or the module may not be properly set up”. Every time I try to search for this, all feedback seems to centre around issues with launching projects rather than the programme itself. I have only been using the programme about two weeks, so have no idea what any of it means, so any help would be appriciated. Thanks.

the plugin is Groom
its for hair
if a project has groomed hair and you don’t have it running they will be bald

I haven’t used any plug-in, though. I haven’t even been using hair, just the mannequin. To this point I’ve just been loading in blender models to make sure dimensions are correct and stuff. Unreal only loads to 75% then crashes with an error message. It seems so strange; I can open UE4 but not 5. Thanks, I’ll see if maybe groom is causing some kind of problem if I can find it.

I don’t know your specs and can’t see the error
but
You can “verify” your install in the drop down by the engine in the launcher
I was using 4.27 up until the 5.0.3 install because it would crash consistently
but I have ue5 running on a quad i7 with a 1060 and its pretty stable.
would always suggest latest drivers for vidcard especially after msupdates
