I am trying to test my game as a standalone application and when packaging I get the following error:
LogPlayLevel: Unhandled Exception: System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.

I tried packaging another project and this problem is still occurring. I tried looking this up and I found nothing related to UE4. Can anyone help?
