ESET NOD32 Anti-Virus. After it’s most recent update, it seems to be blocking the Bridge Plugin within UE5 from communicating with our servers.
We have sourced the following workarounds for you to try:
1) Uninstall the Anti-Virus entirely. (This ensures that the issue will not come up again)
2) Follow the steps below:
- Navigate into Setup > Advanced Setup > Detection Engine.
- Select Network Traffic Scanner and Disable it.
- You should now be able to run Bridge within UE5 successfully.
Hope that will help someone!
