This fixed my Problem:

  1. Exit the Epic Games Launcher entirely by right-clicking on the tray icon and selecting Exit.
  2. Navigate to the following directory: WINDOWS : C:\Users\username}\AppData\Local\EpicGamesLauncher\Saved\Config\Windows
    MAC: /USER/{USERNAME}/Library/Preferences/Unreal Engine/EpicGamesLauncher/Mac/
  3. Open the **Engine.ini **file in a text editor.
  4. Edit the file to include the following:
    [Launcher]
    ForceNonSslCdn=false

**Note: **If the file has the above entry saying true change it to false. If you don’t see the above entry at all in the file then copy and paste it into the file.

  1. Save the file.
  2. Try launching the Epic Games Launcher.
