Summary
I am unable to install Unreal Engine through Epic Games Launcher on Windows 11.
In the Unreal Engine → Library section, clicking the yellow “+” button under “Engine Versions” does absolutely nothing. The “Install Engine” button is also unresponsive.
No engine version tile appears, no installation process starts, and no error message is displayed.
I have already tried restarting the launcher, running it as administrator, clearing the web cache, checking network connectivity, signing out and back in, and completely uninstalling and reinstalling Epic Games Launcher.
The problem persists after all these steps.
I would appreciate assistance identifying the cause and enabling Unreal Engine installation.
