Just a note I think this is related to my own ticket #61 that was closed a while ago.
I didn't however know that there is a work around.
I'll leave this open as a ticket to bring back the ability to run OpenCAGE from anywhere on your system, as it'd present an easier solution to the Epic fix.
It's annoying that Epic don't register the exe of the game like Steam do, as it results in this dumb system where the first exe run in the game's directory is counted as the game process running ðŸ«

I should note though that I have been able to get the OpenCAGE launcher running outside of the A:I directory. although it requires using the command line. This workaround is described in the fix in the initial issue description.
If any of the mod tools are open at all (even the OpenCAGE main executable), the Epic Games Launcher will detect the game as "Running", and will not allow Alien: Isolation to run if launched through the Launch Game tool.
FIX (kind of, and at least for me): Move the OpenCAGE executable and configuration file into a different directory (prevents the OpenCAGE launcher from trigger Epic Games' game detector), then create a symlink from the different directory's configuration file into the Alien: Isolation root folder (allows the tools to work).
