EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION. Need Help Please

[GenericBabyFace]

Every time I do anything within Unreal, It starts up normally when I first boot up my desktop but then when I go to quit and start up Unreal again it crashes, giving me this error.

Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION writing address 0x0000000000000000

I also tried switching to NVIDIA S…
