Greetings. I want to update my UE version from 4.25 to 4.26. However when I open the Epic Launcher I don’t find an option to download the 4.26 version anywhere. Not even in the Unreal Engine tab.
My question is: do I need to update the Epic Launcher to have access to the UE 4.26 download?
If not, how can I solve this? Thank you.

  1. Sign out of launcher
  2. go to c drive and create a new folder named ep or anything except its usual name Epic Games
  3. re-install launcher. If you get an error asking to repair or remove, click remove
  4. re-install launcher to new folder ep on your c drive
  5. everything should be updated including the correct engine and you should have a button to install UE in the launcher now
