VR Project - crashing on XX% project creation + potential workaround

Project creation would stop at 45% and crash the editor.

For me, it seems the cause was that I had set a non-OS, internal hard drive, for the project creation location. In my case, the E-drive.

Instead, if I resort to the default project location, Documents > Unreal Projects, I’m able to fully create the VR project.

I moved my project to my preferred, custom, location by closing the editor and launcher, moving my project folder out of the Documents location and placing it in my custom location (E-drive).

This seems to be a workaround to the custom location problem I was having.

There was another problem that arose after the VR project would crash during creation:
The editor would crash every time I tried to open a project.

Only after a OS reboot, would the engine fully open without crashing.
