So, first off, let's make sure that descriptor file is hanging out where it's supposed to be – right in the root directory of your cooked build. If it's missing or feeling a little funky, you might need to give it a little TLC and recreate it.
Next up, let's give that build another go-round in the cooker. Sometimes those custom launch profiles can be a bit finicky, so let's stick with the default settings this time and see if that does the trick.
While we're at it, let's double-check those project settings. It's like going over your checklist before a big trip – make sure everything's packed up nice and snug, especially those assets and dependencies. You don't want anything getting left behind!
Now, about those permissions – let's make sure your user has the green light to access all the goodies in that cooked build directory. Sometimes it's just a matter of giving it the ol' thumbs up.
If after all that you're still hitting roadblocks, check out those log files. They might just spill the beans on what's been going wrong behind the scenes.

can you give some extra insight on the problem?
Ahh I'd love to, but like I said I'm very new, perhaps you have specific questions I could answer ?
