IT WORKED!
So I was going through all of the suggestions all throughout epics site and google and youtube even and nothing was working. I tried the command prompts, back-rolling my drivers, reupdating my drivers, turning off antivirus and firewalls; nothing was working. Then I came across this thread. The SIMPLEST solution worked for me! All I had to do was create a new destination folder in the C root (local disk) and I don’t know if deleting the original in program files helped or not but I did that too. When I opened up the installer setup wizard I just chose the new folder I just created and it worked seamlessly.
EVERYONE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE GIVE THIS A TRY!
