I cannot myself, download UE4 and UE5 versions, as the launcher never finishes downloading them, and build them from scratch from the Github seems to be very hard, any work around for this? Back in the days with UDK UE3 You would just download the engine and run it in your OS now they are huge in memory and they are very hard to download that is an opinion… And well other than that yes I would like to know a alternative…
It takes a while to download Unreal Engine. How long have you waited for the download process to finish?

Hey there @Neongho! Let’s try a couple things:
Does the engine have read/write permissions? Running it as administrator should remedy that if so.
Try going into the settings and turning on the logging. Then in your launcher folder you can check the log to see where it’s stalling.
Hello thanks for the quick reply.
But wait are you not saying this blocked/closed the topic or thread or however you want to call it?
Also ok I will check that thanks.
Also about Linux any help to get UE 3 UE 4 UE 5 on Linux i can none please help.
Thanks .
Ok I got one downloaded BUT still 5.10 seems to be a stubborn version that does not want to visit my cpu nor my GPU I am trying to check the log, but the launcher seems to be buggy… Any idea?
Ok everything downloaded thanks.
I’m glad everything worked out! Sometimes it could just require a desktop restart and things install. I like to call this the great enigma! Definitely let us know if you have anymore questions!
