Pay mind that in UE 5.7.0 you must select a platform for the Cook Content or Package Project actions in Unreal Editor.

Hello Zhi! Can I ask you to explain more about this part ‘Click the radio button next to a platform to select one.’ ?
I didn’t understand where I can find this radio button - is it on the Supported Platforms window?

I tried modifying my DefaultGame.Ini but it didn’t really work - I’m willing to try this simpler ‘radio button’ before trying to modify it again

Thank you in Advance for your time

Hi if your building for windows click the black circle next to Windows to make it white, this will UN Grey the Package Project.

Hope that helps.

ps Thankyou Zhi Kang Shao for the PSA.

Yes! I also noticed a few days ago that just need to click the “Windows” radio button.
I think there are still many people who don’t know, and I hope the official can fix it, thx.
