    Fortnite crashing after initializing screen


    Hey, my fortnite doesnt launch after EAC initializing screen, it just closes and opens up the Epic Launcher.In windows event viewer I found a warning message "File System Filter 'EasyAntiCheat_EOSSys' Version 6.1, ‎2024‎-‎12‎-‎13T10:01:16.000000000Z does not support bypass IO."In fortnite launcher logs there was this error "level=fatal msg="error running fortnite: 3221225477""I tried reinstalling fortnite and epic launcher, restarting my computer, closing everything in the background that could interfere with EAC, SFC /scannow in CMD, fixing windows through a USB stick. Deleting the webcache

  2. Why does Fortnite, COD Warzone, and Apex Legends keep crashing?

    I did everything on the list for Fortnite but Fortnite is the game that crashes the least so I can't tell if it worked or not. Apex Legends and COD Warzone crashes the most.

  3. My pc freezes and crashes while playing fortnite

    As the tilte suggests i have been experiencing my pc freezing and crashing while i play fortnite (havent tested any other games). To begin with ive been experiencing fortnite crashing mid game for the past week. I updated drivers windows 10 and unistalled fortnite and installed it again. After the windows update i think that the problem expanded to my pc freezing and crashing. To save you some time i have Autoruns from a previous crashing issue

    Fortnite crashing after initializing screen

    Computer crashes after trying to launch Fortnite

    Recently, my computer has been crashing and giving me a blue screen when I try to launch Fortnite.

    I think the crash occurs because the game/my account cannot handle when I change what account I am trying to launch with. The only fix I have found that works EVERY TIME is to wait for the next patch to roll out and to NOT change accounts, even on the fortnite.com website. Another way I have found to fix this error is to get the blue screen, to open the launcher, and then to restart my computer multiple times manually, which, in turn, takes a lot of extra time and work.

    The error returned when I try to launch Fortnite is a System-Thread-Exception-Not-Handled error and, in half-knowing what runs games, I know that a thread is what actually runs the game which helped me figure out the account glitch. Also, when I immediately close the Epic Games Launcher after getting this glitch, I get a different blue screen message that I can't recall right now.

    Computer Specs and Windows version

    Also, Fortnite runs with the Easy Anti-Cheat software, which could be the source of the problem.

    EDIT:

    I found the root of this problem: the file is too large to download into the C:/Program_Files folder, which causes it to run weirdly and crash. I don't know of any fix for this besides getting a larger SSD (as of right now it is a 128 GB SSD.
