Unreal Engine 4 starts very slow

Hey Rudy,

  1. No this actually only occur on my notebook, when I run it on my computer it work’s great. funny thing is actually that notebook is faster than my computer except graphiccard. But like I said it’s not certainly project which takes so long to load, it’s also engine itself.

2.Yeah it always takes very long, even when I start project by file or from launcher. It’s very strange.

One thing I forgot to mention, I’ve added some time ago to my "DefaultEngine.ini"following lines:

[InstalledDerivedDataBackendGraph]
Boot=(Type=Boot, Filename=”/DerivedDataCache/Boot.ddc”, MaxCacheSize=512)
Local=(Type=FileSystem, ReadOnly=false, Clean=false, Flush=false, PurgeTransient=true, DeleteUnused=true, UnusedFileAge=34, FoldersToClean=-1, Path=”/DerivedDataCache”)

I did this because UE4 always saved a lot of files on my SSD, folder I mean is: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Locall\UnrealEngine . So I changed my DefaultEngine so it saves files on my HDD not on my SSD. But like I said, it’s not even project which takes that long to loadup, it’s also happen when I only start normal UE4 without selecting a project.

best regards
