Unreal Crashing whenever I try to open anything after about a week of not using it.

After about a week of not working on the project, i attempted to open it and work on it. At first it crashed on startup so I deleted the Saved, Intermediate, and Config folders and then it opened, but now I cannot open any of the blueprints I created without it crashing. here is my error message.

Any ideas? I have tried searching around but none of the offered solutions have worked thus far.

Hey @Maxwell_Noodle!

Interesting as it’s saying it’s basically getting an index return of a value larger than a given index somewhere in the source code for the base Object class. (Line: 165)

Which tells me it’s something to do with the engine itself. Is this happening with every project? Try using the validator on the launcher!

Hope this helps, let us know!
