Unknown Cook failure

Hi Guys,

I’ve been trying to follow all the links to this error that have been posted but can’t seem to find anything in my logs that indicate why there is an issue, if anyone else could assist that would be helpful!

Thank you in advance!

Hey CrimsonSA,

According to this:

Log.WriteException:
UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to
the path ‘C:\Program
Files\UE_4.21\Engine\Programs\AutomationTool\Saved\Cook-2019.08.09-00.11.00.txt’
is denied.

It looks like you have installed the engine in your program files folder. That’ll be the issue. UE needs to create a tonne of intermediate files, and with program files being protected by windows, this will not be allowed.

I can only suggest that you copy your engine installation to another folder.
