1 Peter 5:6-7 - Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Amen! God loves yall, and if you believe in God, give your love and life to Christ and actually have a relationship, because just believing but not knowing God makes it very easy for the things of the world to effect you in a bad way. Depression and lust and other things will not have a effect on you IF your relationship with God is strong enough. You will not have a strong relationship with God overnight as I takes time for a good and healthy relationship.

[@FailingForFun]

Worked for me! - this error would kill my game one day, then magically fix its self on the next day, even after reinstalling the anti-cheat through the original installer... no clue why this worked. but you fixed my game so thankyou!

Helloooo does anyone know any other ways to fix the issue? I have watched many videos and this one but the problem persists. Every time I try to run Fortnite, the anti cheat says initializing, closes and then just reopens the Epic Games Launcher. This happens again and again and I've tried many methods even uninstalling but no luck so far :(
