Editor crashes on opening 'Editor Preferences' or 'Project Settings'

Development Programming & Scripting
1

I have recently started using the Unreal 4.4.1 engine on Windows 7 64-bit and have been following along with the tutorial videos without any major problems, however when I try to open either the ‘system preferences’ or ‘project settings’ menus the editor freezes for a short time and then closes. This occurs when I try to open those menus with any project.

I am currently using a laptop with an i7-2630QM, GT 540M and 8gb of RAM. I am aware this isn’t the greatest hardware to be running the engine with but it is able to run the editor fairly well so I do not see why it would cause a crash on opening a menu.

I have attached a of the .log and .dmp files of the project that most recently crashed from this issue.

.log and .dmp files.

Here is the crash report from the most recent crash:

Hi ,

Does this only occur on one project or does it occur on a clean project with no additional content? Additionally, are you using the launcher version of the editor or the github version? Thank you!

This Code Function here is driving me crazy. I have created a pastebin link.

Same issue here: When trying to open project preferences:

TerminalOutput
Project.log

When I open up a new Project, i have the same issue.
Editor settings are no problem.
Yesterday everything worked quite fine.

It would be great if someone can help me :slight_smile:
My OS: ArchLinux Version of UE4 Editor: 1.14.1

Edit: I destroyed my /usr/include/ directory. After I reinstalled Arch, there isnt any Problem !
