Development Getting Started & Setup

Hi all,

For the last few days I have been trying to install the 4.,3.0 update in Windows 8. I am running the content browser in Administrator mode, and am currently running using version 4.2.1. When trying to install it will say ‘please wait’,m sit for a bit, and then revert back to the install button. My specs are pretty ■■■■ decent, so this is not an issue. If anyone has a solution for this problem, it would be great as I am keen to migrate some of my work to the newest version.

Thanks for your help in advance!

Hi JohnnyQuid,

Sorry to hear that you are having this issue. How much available space do you have on your hard drive?

Please take a look at the information provided in the link, under the “The Launcher is unable to download content” section.

A new, community-hosted Unreal Engine Wiki - Announcements - Epic Developer Community Forums

I suggest trying the possible solutions, including the AntiVirus disabling and possibly the DNS server change.

If nothing helps, let us know, along with the “veryverbose” log.

Thanks

Update with a possible solution. Please try the following.

Locate DefaultEngine.ini in C:\Program Files\Unreal Engine\Launcher\Engine\Programs\NoRedist\UnrealEngineLauncher\Config

Add the following lines to this ini (without the bullet points):

  • [Portal.OSS]
  • EntitlementUpdateCheckTime=600

Save the ini and relaunch the Portal. Please let us know if this helps. If not, please provide new “veryverbose” logs for us again.

Thanks!
