Research direction

The body contains only a screenshot of the error log, and the payload names no file, test or entry point. Start by reading the two comments and the log image to find what the failing Unreal BuildCookRun step reports about Windhawk.dll. Done would be a reproduction of that failure with a clear statement of what should change, which the issue does not yet give.
