What to do if Fortnite doesn’t start on your PC

If your Fornite on PC doesn’t start because of EasyAntiCheat, you may follow these steps:
- Open the following route on your File Manager:
- C:\Program Files\Epic Games\Fortnite\FortniteGame\Binaries\Win64\EasyAntiCheat
- Select and double click on EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.
- Open Epic Games.
- Start the Fortnite game from the library.
