Hello!

I have the same project running on two different computers running Windows 10 64bit. When I LAUNCH the project on the first one it works perfectly. The second one always returns with an error.
I tried to clean all directories (Binaries/Saved,Intermediate etc) but nothing changed.

I’m using 4.23.1 on both computers.

Have you solved this problem? I getting the exact same error code when trying to launch from the Editor on windows (macOS and other platforms work fine).

I had the same problem, I removed the FPaths::ProjectSavedDir() to “solve” the error.
You can try removing it if you’re using it and haven’t solved your problem.

Great, thank you for your idea. I was also caused by this issue
