Thank you for reporting this issue.
After an investigation it appears that this error will appear if the path uses a directory junction.
This error has been lowered to a warning in a future release (not necessarily the next release).

Windows links are explained in
Find All Symbolic Links and NTFS Junction Points in Windows | SumTips

Open the Windows Command Prompt and type in the below command:

ye, i use a symbolic link, so what can I do? just use another directory?

hi @Lev2011Games .
in Windows File Explorer create
C:\Users\Owner\Documents\UnrealProjects

This works for my UEFN there is no space between Unreal Projects because you will need double quotes around the whole path, really messing up UEFN/Fortnite
