Hello there @G1o2g3h!

Your provided error is incomplete, the screenshot shows the scrolling bar moved a bit below. The beginning of the log should have a more specific error.

Still, the conflict with the UnrealEditorFortnite\_Win64\_Shipping suggest an issue similar to the one below, please check their methods for your scenario.
