UE5 crashing when opening context menus (no crash report)

Problem: My UE5 kept crashing everytime i opened a context menu. And it didn’t show any crash report dialogs or log reports

Solution: Factory reset AMD Software Adrenaline Edition. When prompted to select profile, choose Standard.

Specs:
UE5.3 built from source
OS: Windows 10
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6600 Fighter
RAM: 16GB RAM
CPU: Ryzen 5 5600x

I hope this helps someone else!

Thanks! fixed it for me. 6800XT and ryzen 5800X

Thank you soooooo much for posting this. This fixed it for me too. You have no idea how big of a deal this was for me. :]

Thank you for this recommendation.

This appears to have solved my similar issues under the following system configuration:
UE5.0.3 on Windows 10
RX 5700XT and RADEON PRO WX5700 (using Radeon PRO ‘Gaming’ driver variant)
CPU i7-11700k w/ 32GB RAM

Thank you so much!!! I was using 5600XT and ryzen 5 3600.

Thanks… :pray: Solved my issue.

This did NOT fix it for me.

I have a post here listing EVERYTHING i’ve done so far yet the context menu still seems to ruin everything:

Same thing happening with me.

CPU: Ryzen 9 7950x
GPU: RX 6600 Asus Dual

anyone found a fix for it?

Check if you are using the GPU output instead of the onboard integrated graphics.

Have Task Manager set to “Always On Top”, and place it over the UE5 window. Then the context menu shouldn’t brick the PC anymore
