Uploading .datasmith file results in a complete crash!

Thank you all for the thread SUPER helpful. I’ve completed every step on the thread and still no solution :hot_face:

please help need fix

Sometimes “weird problems” can be solved by deleting the Build and Intermediate folders in an Unreal project, don’t know if this is the same with the Fortnite editor… but you could always try (take a backup of those folders anyway, just in case u need to restore them)!

thanks a lot,you are my life saver

Hi do you have any idea on how to solve this issue

Thanks!
Restoring the default 3D settings from Nvidia Control Panel solved the issue with UE5.5.3.
I was getting a kind of blurry UI and after a 1min a crash with this Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x0000000000000028

Intel(R) Core™ i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz
Windows 10 Pro
Nvidia GTX 1080
Driver 32.0.15.7216

Fixed I found was go into nvidia control panel and application setting and change everything to nvidia for unreal engine editor
