Can't launch UEFN session

I discovered that the problem isn’t my laptop
I tried to open and launch my original project on a new computer and account, and it worked!

So, I can actually launch my project on my pc if I follow these steps:

  • First open Fortnite game on my pc
  • Then open the UEFN project
  • Launch the project on my pc (edit mode or game mode)
    (After a few tries, it works)

The real problem is: I can’t launch the project on my Xbox One anymore (I was using it originally when I reported this problem)

I did try to launch on the Xbox from the other pc and account, but it just won’t work

I don’t know if it’s a common issue, if it’s being fixed on a new update, but I hope it does bc my laptop lags a lot when I have both the game and the uefn open xD

I did lose a lot of time trying to make it work again lol, but I can continue working, didn’t lose my project, that’s a relief :pray:

You’re correct, UEFN fails to recognize Xbox accounts for a Session, if your Launch UEFN first launch a Session, it also wouldn’t recognize your pc. Thank You LarYye, it works for me too. it was driving me crazy! for 10 days.

I finally made it to work on xbox one too, made as mentioned on this post: UEFN Live Sessions Don't Launch Onto Xbox One - #17 by Flak

I uninstalled, restarted the xbox and reinstalled the game. Then open the game, launched the uefn project, and finally (after a few tries) it opened my project :pray:

It works, but it’s so frustrating that to launch the project on my pc or Xbox I have to try like 3 times for it to finally work :confused: but apparently, case solved!

It just needs some improvements on matchmaking, I hope the devs keep an eye on it :pray:

:thinking: If you having to launch a session 2 or 3 time to get it started. Is most likely your window security or check if you have folder in the correct driver, I had folder in c driver and need them in f driver lol I had that same problem before.
Also, UEFN running but you lag too much when you start session having both UEFN and Fortnite running. There a good chance your Nvidia is not setup properly with Fortnite. For a long time, I couldn’t play Fortnite in my pc how bad it lagged, now it run smooth with both running. Just ask Chat gpt to guide you on the best setting for your pc NVidia setting to run Fortnite.

i did it before, but reinstalled from the ms website for a second time now

it was showing as 90gb in the store, but when it started installing on xbox, it was downloading only 60gb again

it didn’t launch right in the first try, but it did in the next one
i still need to make some tries until it works

Yes looks like your country’s MS Store version has not been updated.
Has the MS Store app on your Xbox been updated since 4th October 2024?
The UK MS Store has been updated.

Fairly obviously used the Win 11 MS App Uninstall and wiped the hidden app files the UEFN/Fortnite 31.30 uninstalled from PC using remove the application.

Then install from UEFN/Fortnite Epic Launcher in run as Administrator.

Started Xbox One X from Restart in 31.40

open FN Creator takes the main island CreativeWert.
Imported into UEFN, which deletes the project in FN Creative.

Modified the UEFN version billboard text and character selection

Select Launch to connect to the console.

Launched first time. in Edit mode changed more characters in Editor Custom save changes

Left so long that the new Sleep function cuts in on Xbox One
