New project stuck at 91% loading

As per title. I have literally just selected the FPS example and the loading has stuck at 91% for about 10 mins now. It’s a brand new project with probably next to no assets.

I had previously made a project, started it, but then after loading into it the editor completely froze, and couldnt even be ended through task manager (I had to log out on windows to get it to close).

Does anyone know what might be causing it?

Also in task manager, it is using absolute 0% CPU and memory is stuck at 438.0mb for the past several minutes so it’s literally doing nothing.

So then the last thing I could possiblydo was restart the computer, so I did that, and then the project loading up completely instantly into the editor. Wow that seems like a real bad bug!!!

This is, likely not a bug. It’s expected.
First launch often takes quite a bit of time as it compiles shaders in the background. It may SEEM like it’s doing nothing, but it usually is.

Mine is doing it on a particle, dust instarter content, and this is 2023, what say you ?
Its annoying, and yes about ten minutes.
