Have you tried deleting FortniteGame from \AppData\Local\

Thank you for your answer

I just deleted all EPIC GAMES Launcher and installed again. Lets see if not happends again because this coulb be triggered again next week

It continue to crash.

I tried:

-Reinstall Fortnite
-Reinstall Epic Games
-Delete FortniteGame from \AppData\Local\

Please, I need help ASAP. I am thinking about formating my computer…

Mine was crashing on start up since 36.00 but I was getting a red screen error unlike yours that just kept on reconnecting, I fixed that with what I said above but I still had time outs and crashing which I think wound up being something with easy anti cheat so I did these below worth a try I guess

Now it seems it is working again. I will try this next time. Thank you!

Crashing again. I did everything and this is totally random I don´t know what to do.

I tried:

-Reinstall Fortnite
-Reinstall Epic Games
-Delete FortniteGame from \AppData\Local
-Reinstall Graphic Card drivers
-As @Shawk said, set services for automatic delayed start
-As @Shawk said, open ports

The team looked into this. It appears to be a known issue with Intel CPUs based on the info here: Intel Processor Instability Causing Oodle Decompression Failures

Take a look at let us know. Thank you!

That is even worse that I though. If that is true that means my processor is dead and can not work with UEFN anymore. Did you confirmed this?

FORT-947714’s status has changed to ‘Ready for QA’. A member of the QA department is investigating the issue.

That kills half of your processor threads, last resource for now.

I am waiting until my IT friend helps me. I will be back with news
