Showing update to game, but no update exists

[gunysa1]

Describe the bug

Fortnite is showing an update but when I click it does not do anything (starts a download but immediately stops). Checking with the epic launcher there seems to be no update available. Removing the launcher and reinstalling it (completely) and importing Fortnite did not change the outcome. The game still launches from heroic, but I must force it to launch without updating. Before this I had no problem updating through the Heroic launcher.
