Broken Add New Button #185

Closed DabMK closed 2 years ago

DabMK commented 2 years ago

The "Add New" button does not work with Epic Games. The path is right

EDIT: The "LOGIN" button is also broken. The notification with "Starting EpicGames..." appears, but it never runs

TCNOco commented 2 years ago

Is this just with the Add New button, or switching accounts too?

DabMK commented 2 years ago

Yes, it is just with Login and Add New button, switching account works well. Running the program as admin does not fix the bug

Unfortunately I can't recreate this issue. Let's try doing this manually to see if it does work (This is what the program does to switch accounts):

  1. Close Epic Games completely. Make sure that it's closed using the Task Manager.
  2. Press Start+R and enter %LocalAppData%\EpicGamesLauncher\Saved\Config\Windows\
  3. Delete GameUserSettings.ini.
  4. Press Start+R and enter regedit
  5. Navigate into HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Epic Games\Unreal Engine\Identifiers and delete AccountId.

The next time you start Epic Games it should ask you to login.

If this manual workaround works, then... I'm not too sure. If this doesn't work, Epic may have changed the way they store info - Which wouldn't make much sense... If this does work, then likely it's something to do with the TcNo Account Switcher and file/folder permissions on your computer, as it works for me.
