because the launcher stuck at loading screen I am unable to open the engine, is there a way to run it directly ?

If you have a .uproject file can just double click that. I desktop shortcut all the .uprojects I work with frequently.

Thank you for the location, though it’s changed since this post. for 5.3.something, it’s now found in “C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_5.3\Engine\Binaries\Win64\UnrealEditor.exe” Hope this helps for anyone new.
