Unreal Engine 5.2.1 UnrealEditor.exe - Entry Point Not Found when opening VR Template project

[Origenic]

The procedure entry point StackWalk2 could not be located in the dynamic link library
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\dbgeng.dll

Ok, I just found the fix for it… this seems to be an old issue

Dbgeng.dll fails and crashes unreal with 100% repros

Hello everyone, I ended up facing the same problem and decided to describe some steps until I found the solution. I’m part of a team that develops a project using 4.23. This error has never occurred before. There was a need recently to start another VR project in parallel. For this project, we are using 5.3 with Meta Quest 2. I installed the Oculus program normally, configured Quest 2 and ran it normally on 5.3. After that, I ran the project again in 4.23 and it started showing this error: […

It looks like the file in this location-

C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_5.2\Engine\Binaries\ThirdParty\DbgHelp

gets outdated or something and needs replacing with the one at this location

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\dbgeng.dll

basically, copy the one in the Windows system32 folder and replace the one in the UE5.2 folder (mentioned above) with it.

I did this and now the error is gone.

You’d think by now this would no longer be an issue lol
