I just installed the Epic Launcher and when I start it I get this “No version information received” error. I’m using Windows 8.1 64bit.
I also tried to start the launcher with the “-http=wininet” parameter, but it doesn’t help.
Also I noticed that the launcher is trying to send the request to localhost, but I’m not using any king of proxy (or anything like that).
Here’s the launcher log
Hi robot9706,
Yes, it’s very odd that the Launcher should try to connect to somewhere on your network (http://127.0.0.1), we think that perhaps something went wrong when it last updated to your current version of the Launcher. We released a new version of the Launcher msi which you could trying downloading here and installing over the top of your existing installation and seeing if that fixes the problem.
