UE 4.11 Error Code R-3

I am unable to install 4.11 getting the following error message:

87861-r3.png

Can anyone tell me what these ‘prerequisites’ are so I can install them manually? Or rather what error r-3 even means.

I am running windows 7 64bit sp1. 4.10.4 installs and runs out of the box even if I remove it and reinstall it now.

There was another question regarding this which remains unresolved here:

Hey xchen-

After some searching, it appears someone who was also getting the R-3 error was able to install after rebooting their machine (Install Fails with Error Code R-3 - Getting Started & Setup - Epic Developer Community Forums). Can you let me know if that helps? If you still have problems getting the engine to install, please visit http://help.epicgames.com/ for technical support, here you can find information and solutions for common issues, as well as a contact form if you still need additional assistance.

Rebooting the machine definately does not help. I’ve been having this issue since 4.11 came out and was waiting to see if a solution is found somewhere. Since it seems to be an uncommon problem I figured posting a quesiton about it might help making it more visible. The standard fixes in the troubleshooting guide like reinstalling vc++ and net framework didn’t help either.

Hi xchen,

I’m sorry that didn’t help. To get in touch with Epic’s support staff for the Launcher, please visit http://help.epicgames.com/ and click on the ‘Email us’ link on the right side of the page.
