For some reason, every time I try and run unreal (v226f) it shows the unreal splash then crashes with an error message saying

"Failed to load player class

History: ULevel::SpawnPlayActor

Trying again this morning, I managed to fix it. I've still no idea what the problem was, only that it was somewhere in the user.ini file. Anyway it's working now.
