The Unreal Insights guide says it's supposed to come with Unreal but I can't find it?

This guide says Insights is supposed to be in Engine\Programs\UnrealInsights, but while that directory exists ( in C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_4.26\Engine\Programs) it’s empty other than a Config folder with a default config.

Where can I actually download Insights from? Also, do I need to package my game before I can run Insights against it, or can it work on a game running in editor preview?

Hi!

All the built binaries are in the Binaries folder, so in your case for example if you are on Win64:
C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_4.26\Engine\Binaries\Win64

You can find the UnrealInsights.exe in there as well.

Surprisingly, I do not have it. I built the Engine from source following the “default” guide but Unreal Insights doesn’t seem to have come with it.

Edit : Found an answer to this in Unreal Docs :

For users who download the UE4 source code and compile it locally, you can compile it either by building the entire UE4 solution in Development or Shipping mode, or by building the “UnrealInsights” project directly.

So in my case, I need to build it.
