As the title says, I can’t package with Pak Files and Io store on any project, even a fresh first-person template. I’ve tried reinstalling UE, which did nothing. I’m using UE 5.5.4

Here’s the log:

I’m sorry for the repost. I thought edits could be viewed by anyone, so I removed the previous post.

First you need to stop posting your log to the world like you are doing, you are exposing your IP address , your computer name your local username, everything.

Second, the most relevant part about your issue is this part:

Ah, crap. I had a feeling the log would have that kind of info but I saw other people posting their logs, so I thought it’d be fine… Thanks alot for the heads up.

I’ll try and look into the errors. Thank you so much! Both for the warning and the help.
