Fresh install of O3DE. New default project. Project has been built. In Project Manager when I click on open in editor button on the new project, the icon spins but nothing happens. No errors and no logs.

  1. Make absolutely certain you install the Visual Studio Windows SDK that the installation page said to install. It’s required.
  2. Do you have Direct X 12 or Vulcan running.
    • In this ticket (https://github.com/o3de/o3de/issues/3645) the developer figured out that the DX12 was the problem and because O3DE defaults to it, the edtior is failing. Her solutions is to run the edtior in the comand line with the proper switches.

3. A second developer in another thread experience the same issues even after upgrading to DX12. They discovered that cloning the git-hub respository and comping O3DE resolve the problem.
