UE4 Crashes After Windows Update

Development Programming & Scripting
1

When I launch my UE4, any projects after the windows 2004 update. It just crashes. The engine when running a project will freeze and if I try to task manager to stop the task, my computer freezes. I’ve edited registry stuff, I’ve redownloaded the software, and I’ve even done some resets. It seems if my windows updates at all, I am screwed. And as I see it, windows will eventually force update. Any help?

Same here. Clicking on any element will crash the editor instantly and it also freezes windows 10.

Here the output of my log file:

No idea, it seems the GPU is taking too long to match with the editor stuff but not entirely sure. I myself dont get any reports

You should have a log in
/route-to-unreal-project-folder/projectname/Save/Logs/ and more in
/route-to-unreal-project-folder/projectname/Save/Crashes
At the end of the error log there should be information about your problem.

The built in crash reporter crashes as well, that’s right.

Wish UE4 had a free customer support lol besides forums that not many look at

Would be good. I have deleted and cleanly installed UE from the scratch. The problem is still there and nobody willing to answer.

Have a look into this thread here. Somebody disabled the function which hides the taskbar in window automatically and UE4 stops crashing.

Ill take a look i hope i can fix this as ive done so much to try to fix like DDU and registry etc.
