Additional Notes

I have tried restarting an d reinstall Unreal Engine and my computer, but the issue persists. I also checked for updates and ensured my graphics drivers are up to date. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, Welcome to the Forums,

First thing to try is to go into Window → Load Layout → Default Editor Layout.

This will hopefully reset your viewport.
