Seems to happen at random times whilst using the editor.

I have left this project as standard as possible to rule out other errors, I have done no imports or migrations.

I used modeling mode to create a few boxes for floors and walls and created colours for them but have experienced the error on occasions with a completely empty world.

All my crash dump files show C:\Program Files\Epic Games\Fortnite\FortniteGame\Binaries\Win64\UnrealEditorFortnite-Win64-Shipping.exe as the last process leading to the crash.

After reading forums and trying suggestions nothing I have tried so far has worked (reinstalled drivers, launcher, game etc).

Is there a definitive fix for this error at all?

After much faffing around I have had UEFN run for over 10 hours without any errors (usually at least 12 by now).

The only thing different I have done is not to add my GPU to the Nvidia control panel or app and only added it to the Windows graphics section, instead of setting it to power saving or high performance GPU as I had before I just left it to run on let Windows decide and have had no issues at all so far.
