Hello everyone and a happy new year,
I am using Unreal since a year but I cannot create a new 5.7.1 project inside the Epic Games Launcher. When I click the Engine Version, it doesn’t launch the Create Project window. Instead it starts a recent UE 5.7.1 project. Where can I change this?
Thanks in advance
Dietmar
Hello @Dietmar1975 ,Happy new year!
I tried to replicate the issue you’re experiencing, where launching the engine opens a project directly.
In my case, when I open the Epic Games Launcher and, under Engine Versions, click Launch for version 5.7.1, a new window opens where I can create a new project or view existing projects.
Just to confirm, are you following these exact same steps?
And If that doesn’t work and the issue still persists, you could try the following:
when it automatically opens your project, go to the top-left corner and click File, then select Open Project and uncheck Always load last project on startup.
Hope it helps!
Thanks a lot for helping me out. It was the last suggestion you gave me. Ticking the option off solved the problem! Again: Thanks a lot!!!
