Quixel Bridge UE Crash

When I tap on any object in the bridge app my screen goes black and this only happens when I am logged in to my account. If I log out of my account I can click everywhere and everything is ok, but of course I can’t download anything.
I have tried reinstalling the Bridge plugin and Unreal Engine , but nothing helps.
I use unreal engine 5.3.2 and latest Bridge plugin.
Any idea how to fix it?

Same. And it happened to me in a class full of students when my class was supposed to be based on this feature. Now, at home it’s still the same. Help! At least 20 PC had the same issue at once.

Edit: it is still doing this but I found that if you won’t open the material but just use the little download icon on the right corner of each material it works! Hope that helps a little.

This issue caused a major problem for me. Plus I cannot access my metahumans from my 5.3 projects. But when I created a fresh project in 5.4 it works. :thinking:
