So I found out the answer was simple. Turns out if you ever installed Unreal and you later have your environment Temp & TMP paths changed at all(probably to free up space on your C:), then the launcher will fail. You can test this by making another user, and if the launcher works on that account and not yours then you can be sure it the environment variable. Just go to your system settings and set them both back to: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp

After a restart that should fix the problem.

I’m glad that you were able to figure it out. Thank you for sharing your solution!

I really can not understand the meaning of this " Just go to your system settings and set them both back to: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp"

Can you explain more details please?

I have the same problem. Have specified for a new project, another hard drive as a location, now the engine stopped working. Various things were supposedly missing. I clicked on the engine in the Epic Games Launcher and waited until it was done. Now everything is back. Once you change the path of the projects, there seems to be a problem! So if you have the hard drive full and want to use another hard drive is forced to perform a re-verification!

Deutsch:
Wer seinen Speicherort für die Projekte ändert, heißt: Wer bei der Erstellung eines Projektes eine andere Festplatte angibt, muss danach die Engine neu Verifizieren! Einfach im Launcher auf den Pfeil der Engine und ganz unten auf verifizieren klicken! Dauert etwas aber danach gehts wieder!
