Hello, I can’t seem to package any of my projects. I get these errors on any project that is not empty. My system is 4090 , 13900k, 128GB RAM. I have updated all drivers and Visual Studio to latest versions. I keep getting these crashes no matter what settings I change. ![image](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/d/2/9/d29f8064ed14b32355683f18fe936541ba432872.png) UATHelper: Packaging (Windows): D:\J2\Build\Windows\FileOpenOrder\CookerOpenOrder.log Priority 0 UATHelper: Packaging (Windows): Running: D:\Epic Games\UE\_5.3\Engine\Binaries\Win64\UnrealPak.exe “D:\J2\J2.uproject” -cryptokeys=“D:\J2\Saved\Cooked\Windows\J2\Metadata\Crypto.json” -secondaryOrder=“D:\J2\Build\Windows\FileOpenOrder\CookerOpenOrder.log” -patchpaddingalign=2048 -compressionformats=Oodle -compresslevel=5 -compressmethod=Kraken -platform=Windows -CreateMultiple=“C:\Users\robbe\AppData\Roaming\Unreal Engine\AutomationTool\Logs\D+Epic+Games+UE\_5.3\PakCommands.txt” UATHelper: Packaging (Windows): LogPakFile: Display: Parsing crypto keys from a crypto key cache file UATHelper: Packaging (Windows): LogPakFile: Display: CompressionFormats in priority order: Oodle, Zlib UATHelper: Packaging (Windows): LogPakFile: Display: Oodle enabled on ‘NoPluginCompression’ files UATHelper: Packaging (Windows): LogPakFile: Display: Loading pak order file D:\J2\Build\Windows\FileOpenOrder\CookerOpenOrder.log… UATHelper: Packaging (Windows): LogPakFile: Display: Finished loading pak order file D:\J2\Build\Windows\FileOpenOrder\CookerOpenOrder.log.

I’ve sent the project files to a colleague and he can build it succesfully so there is something wrong with my system. I have also made sure to download everything for the engine. ![image](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/0/8/0/080fb35dac41ef6d046713f43df481b83d684c0e.png) ---

For whatever reason, disabling Oodle compression from project settings and setting it to None fixed all my packaging issues. Now I succesfully managed to pacakge 2 different projects. I would still love to understand why that happened and maybe fix it without disabling Oodle. ---

Just telling that the crashed was caused by AI overclocking. Disabling it restored to normal. ---

OK, deleting Binaries and Build folders helped me only for one time. Looks like random and deleting these folders don’n help at all. I have similar setup with I7-13700K and 6000 mHz DDR6 DRAM with XMP overclock. First I tried disable XMP overclock and this don’t help. After that I updated my BIOS, returned XMP overclock and updatde video card drivers. I also moved project to another SSD with more disk space (previous has only ~50 GB free space and this also may cause issues). And that didn’t help me either. But after all of this I finded solution for my case. I tried making shipping package from CMD (in my case, for some reason this required open CMD with administrator permissions) and finnaly package build was successful. `D:\Programs\UE_5.1\Engine\Build\BatchFiles\RunUAT.bat" BuildCookRun -project="D:\Project\Project.uproject" -noP4 -platform=Win64 -target=ProjectName -noclean -build -cook -allmaps -utf8output -stage -pak -manifests -compressed -archive -archivedirectory="D:\Package" -clientconfig=Shipping` ---

I was the same,and your solution works,but the built-package become larger. I found another solution about 13900K 14900K cpu,and mine is 13900K,works for me too. [Intel Processor Instability Causing Oodle Decompression Failures (radgametools.com)](https://www.radgametools.com/oodleintel.htm) ---

I tried lowering the CPU frequency, but it didn’t work. Later, I followed the recommendation in this document: **For ASUS: Ask the customer to change the BIOS settings: Advanced (F7) → SVID Behavior: Change to “Intel’s Fail Safe”** After making this change, the packaging completed successfully for me.
