Does loading the default layout help?:
Why the project settings is opening the same time with unreal engine 4? How to prevent this?
Its very annoying when I start the engine I want to see the editor not the project settings!
Its fixed now automatically. I started Unreal Engine and I can see the editor now. I dont understand rather strange.
I’ve encountered that before too, opening the editor and the Project Settings window opens. It delays the starting of the engine, and is distracting at first. There might be a setting to enable / disable it in Project Settings itself, or in Preferences.
