Projects corrupting on other machines?

I work with a small team making a game and we regularly share, copy/paste our projects to each other. Our current project has started to have some strange issues. Once copied over and moved to another machine they work really inconsistently. In most cases it works the first time you load it, but then the second time is crashes and produces an error report. Is this a common issue and can it be fixed?
Thanks

Hey Twibbz -

Can you give me some more details about exactly what is happening? When you move it between computers, how are you doing it, via USB, Google Drive, Perforce, etc. Also how intermittently is this happening and does it seem to happen more with one particular computer in your team? Also on one of those crashes, please provide us with the .LOG and .DMP files from your [project]\Saved\Logs folder. Additionally, you can please send us the CrashReportClient.log file located in C:\Program Files\Unreal Engine\4.0\Engine\Programs\CrashReportClient\Saved\Logs. and the number that pops up in the crash reporter, submit the report and send us the number.

Thank You

Hi -

We transfer our projects using USB, ive had the issue once on my computer ( managed to temp fix by restoring older files), but my other team member consistenly gets the error now ( over a week). Its fine the first time it loads but then the 2nd time it crashes upon loading the project.

Here is the shizzle you need from his side: (If you want the stuff from my side then i can do that too if needed)
(i gather if it gets fixed his side then it should ultimately fix on both partys)

Crash report: 18f636f865ed427ed6ab526fe060c11c

It wont let me attach .dmp files for some reason

Which folders are you copying?

You only need to copy a subset of the folders within your project, as listed here: What is the correct way to copy project folders to another machine? - Platform & Builds - Epic Developer Community Forums

The other folders contain data specific to the PC/user that generated them, and could potentially cause issues if copied to a PC with different specifications.

Hey Twibbz -

I am still working on tracking this problem down for you and your team member’s information helps, but I want to check on two things so I can reproduce here accurately. What is your operating system, is it also Windows 8 Pro or is it different and in what format is your USB device (NTFS, FAT32, etc.)

Thanks

Yes unfortunately we didn’t know about this and we have been copying over the entire project folders to different machines

my team member OS is 8.1 Pro.
my external hard drive is NTFS, his memory stick is FAT32.
The original machine that most of the work is conducted on is Windows 8.1
it then gets transferred to my team members computer and also to my personal computer which is using Windows 7 home premium. We have been copying over the entire project files which i know now from your colleague is a bad thing to do.
