UE5 taking forever!!!

Took maybe 2 hours to download which im just gonna blame it on my internet connection, but still wtf

Opened up my first project though, and ive been waiting an hour and its been stuck at 45% compiling shader for the majority of the time.
Is this normal.

Did i just waste money on the wrong computer?
I just got a Lenovo V15 24gb RAM 1 TB SSD

Was so exited about the computer and unreal engine bit ive just been waoting for ever getting really irritated :triumph:

It mightve been almost 2 hours now jist trying to get ot started

Just got the computer today and only ised the internet to get UE5 so its not a virus

Could be 2 hrs, easily.

Did you get the 5.3? It postpones a lot of shader compilation.

What GPU does the laptop have ( probably the most important thing )?
