I’m running unreal engine 5.4.3 and every time I open a drop down menu the whole engine freezes. I pull up task manager and kill Unreal, but it only closes the window and makes everything else on my PC freeze so I’m forced to restart it and try again. I’m restarting my PC every 4 or 5 minutes at this point and I’m one more time away from breaking my keyboard over my face.
I’ve tried just about every solution I’ve seen so far on the internet and each one has helped a little but none of them have fixed it. I’ve taken it out of full-screen mode, I’ve updated drivers and Windows, I’ve reset my AMD settings in Adrenalin, I’ve enabled Vsync, etc. Vsync seemed to help the most and made it where 15% of the time it wouldn’t freeze on opening a menu. But now it’s getting worse.
It also freezes even outside of a project when i click a drop down menu while creating a project such as scalable or maximum render quality. Plus, i dont believe unreal is generating any crash reports because it just freezes and im forced to restart. I’ve yet to get an error code or crash message.
I’m a newbie to unreal and have wasted 3 days just trying to build a landscape and create a sky because of this. Please help
