I have a lot of "Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address " usually after the editor opening, it sometimes also fails during shader compilation. Some projects like OldWestLearning I cannot even open, but others like ElectricDreamsEnv works fine. Also, cooking the project is a huge lottery. It started when I switched to the new more powerful computer with RTX 4090 and also with Windows 11. I thought that I was having some HW issue, I tried all possible RAM and GPU memory testers and CPU testers, bios default settings. I tried rendering in Blender, Cinebeanch benchmark. I tried to play 4k games like Cyberpunk. I tried driver verification. I tried to clean Windows 11, without any 3rd party software. And I have no other issue than with Unreal Engine, everything else is solid stable. But before the update to the new HW Unreal Engine was working quite well. So it probably somehow depends on the HW. I did not try studio NVIDIA drivers, I’m using just the Game Ready driver, but since it is the game engine I would expect that it should be a better option, right?
But otherwise, another very poor side of UE is documentation, this is also very bad. I almost entirely rely on community tutorials, demos, etc.
But sometimes even the community did not help
