I'm getting the same message Compile done within UE5 Editor

Excessive crashes and Blueprint corruption when using Live Coding. ...

Context I’m trying to use UE for quick prototyping with a mixed approach of both C++ and Blueprints, so that means creating Actors and Components constantly, moving and changing them around all the time. Making C++ changes and then compiling them with Live Coding or Hot Reload causes constant Blueprint corruption and UE crashes. Even with small...

Also - when this UE5 Compile button should be used then?

And keep live coding on and use it within its limitations
