Same here…
Even reinstalled windows 11 Home - English (UK) - installed epic launcher - then it cannot install services… Starting the installer manually, it starts, all the files are written, and then rolled back…
Tried all the fixes here and on various forums. admin mode, bla bla… EVERYTHING…
Even in December 2024 - this does not work on a blank windows machine… No messages, errorcodes (except the standard one that links to a page on epic site - with all the fixes that most likely work for some)… …
Funny thing is - to identical machines… Installs on one, not on the other… No explanation !!
Now I have the files available (made a copy of them while installing). Will try to MANUALLY install the service from the binaries…
BUT SHOULD NOT BE NECESSARY… Too bad !!
Also for info - does NOT show up in the microsoft troubleshooter… Even after 10 installation attempts… Only “epic games launcher” and “epic games launcher prereqs x64” shows up there…
