How do I build lights in unreal 5?

Hello Everyone, I just installed UE5 and I played a little bit with lumen, it’s great, but I want to test the same scene for VR and VR does not support lumen, how do I bake lights with CPU as in previous versions of UE?
When I click bake lights it does not do anything, a buffer bar flashes for a second but it disappear and nothing happen.
If it’s not possible to bake lights at all in UE5 How can I import the UE5 project in UE4?

Do you have your Dynamic Global Illumination Method set to None? (Project Settings > Rendering)

Thanks for your comment, but yes I have and it doesn’t do anything.

Ok I got it, I don’t know why but I had “force no precomputed lighting” set to true in the world settings!
Thanks for the help anyway!
