Fortnite kicks me out of every match with errors.com.epicgames.common.processing

Summary

I am having a problem with Fortnite where I get kicked out of every match after the game starts.

The error I receive is:

errors.com.epicgames.common.processing

Fortnite says that I was removed from the match because of network latency, my IP address, my machine, a VPN/proxy, or cheating. However, I am not using a VPN or proxy.

My Internet connection appears to be working normally. I tested my connection and got 0% packet loss, with around 15 ms ping to 8.8.8.8. My connection to my router is also stable.

I also:

  • Reset the DNS cache.

  • Reset Winsock.

  • Verified Fortnite’s game files through Epic Games Launcher.

  • Checked Windows proxy settings.

  • Checked my network adapters and found no VPN adapter.

  • Tested Fortnite using my phone’s mobile hotspot instead of my home Wi-Fi.

The exact same error still happens when using the phone’s connection, so it doesn’t seem to be caused by my home Wi-Fi or router.

The game launches normally, but once I enter a match, I am eventually kicked out of the game with the same error.

I would really appreciate any help or information about this issue, because Fortnite is currently unplayable for me.
