Hi Koin.

I believe that error code is related to the one detailed here: Epic Games Technical Support & Customer Service | Epic Games

The simple answer is that you can’t update the software when you have it open and running. Exit the Unreal Editor then try again.

Hi ,

thanks for your help, though i made sure that unreal is close while i try to update the plugin,it didn’t work, anyways i fixed the problem by deleting the plugin and reinstall it again

Thanks again

I have the same problem.

now I can’t open anything because datasmith fails to initialize, and I can’t uninstall datasmith, it says I don’t have any plugins installed, and I can’t install datasmith, says it’s already installed or something. already tried reinstalling the whole unreal editor, didn’t work

correction: uninstalled everything again and tried installing again, it worked.
