Unreal Engine Mouse hover freeze

Hello, I have a problem where the program freezes when I hover the mouse over the options. It’s not just the program that freezes, but the entire computer. These are brief interruptions that last less than a second, but there are so many that they hinder my work. I’ve contacted a couple of IT specialists, and after updating all the drivers and running some tests, we’ve concluded that it must be something within the program, perhaps a setting that needs to be disabled or something similar. It also can’t be a hardware issue since I have a new computer that should work fine.

Is this about the editor interface?

  • OS?
  • pc spec, roughly?
  • what GPU & driver version?
  • are there any overlays you might be running?
  • any fancy software that came with the GPU?
  • any performance monitors?
