I’ve installed Unreal Engine (5.3.2) for the first time on my PC, and I can’t launch the Editor - I get this error Error 0xC0000142.
It seems like it is a common windows error related to missing .dll’s. I have all the C++ and DirectX runtimes installed. I have also tried running the editor in compatibility mode, and as admin, etc. with no luck.
Any ideas for me to try?
Greetings @respondstochat
Welcome back to the Unreal Engine Community Forum. I’d be happy to look into this with you. I believe I recognize the error that you’re mentioning. But, do you have the crash log showing the full error message? Thanks!
There was no crash log created when this error occurs, just a message box with that error in it.
Please obtain the crash log.
