I'm having packaging issues with Unreal Engine. Please help!

I apologize that my first post is a question.

But no matter how much I searched, I couldn’t solve this problem on my own.

Please help me.

Here’s my error log

Hey @_TV4! Welcome to the forums!!

Do you think you could post the log as screen snips instead? It would make it A LOT easier to read, because you only need to pay attention to yellow and red text unless you’re looking to confirm something is working!

Get back to us soon and in the meantime I’ll try to parse through this, though the screen snips would REALLY help!

_TV4 · March 4, 2025, 10:11pm

Thank you for answer. But I don’t know what snip screen shot…

Mind-Brain · March 4, 2025, 11:14pm

You use the Windows Key + Shift + S to pull up the snip window, then you just drag to make a screenshot! Then you can upload that.

This is obviously a problem with AutomationTool Access Permissions
The solution is to run your UnrealEditor with administrator privileges to see if it can be solved.
If not, then navigate to the C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_5.1\Engine\Programs\AutomationTool directory and set the AutomationTool permissions.
