1] Confirm own game version is still available to play

Here, you’re required to contact the game developer’s support team to find out whether the game you own is still available to play – some game developers release alpha or beta versions of their game that you can play prior to the release of the full game. If this is not the case for you receiving the Epic Games error code LS-0013, you can try the next solution.

2] Verify the game files

This solution requires you to verify your game files to ensure your game is installed and updated properly.

To Verify the game files, do the following:

  • Open the Epic Games Launcher.
  • Click Library.
  • Click the three dots next to the game you want to verify.
  • Click Verify.
  • Depending on the size of the game, this process may take a while.
  • Once the verification operation is complete, relaunch your game.

The game should launch without the error. Otherwise, try the next solution.

3] Clear Epic Games Launcher web cache

To clear the Launcher web cache on your Windows 10/11 computer, do the following:

  • Exit the Epic Games Launcher via the system tray/notification area icon in the right corner of the Taskbar – right-click the icon and then click Exit.
  • Next, press Windows key + R to invoke the Run dialog.
  • In the Run dialog box, type in the environment variable below and hit Enter to open the local AppData folder

  • At the location, open the Epic Games Launcher folder.
  • Open the Saved folder.
  • Click the webcache folder, and then tap the DELETE key on your keyboard.
  • Restart your computer.

On boot, start the Epic Games Launcher. The error should be resolved. If not, try the next solution.

4] Launch the game in Clean Boot state

Some background applications may be causing the game to fail to open normally. In this case, you can perform a Clean Boot of your Windows 10/11 device and then try launching the game again. If the issue persists, try the next solution.

5] Run third-party launcher for the game with Admin privilege

You may receive this error with a game that uses another launcher to run (i.e. Rockstar Game Services, Uplay).

In this case, you can run the non-Epic Games launcher for the game with Admin privilege and see if that resolves the issue at hand.

6] Disable administrator privileges for the game

Do the following:

  • Right-click your game or Launcher shortcut icon.
  • Select Properties.
  • In the Properties sheet, go to the Compatibility tab.
  • Uncheck the Run this program as an administrator option.
  • Click Apply > OK.

Постоянное обновление контента, динамичность событий и скромные системные требования – главные достоинства игры. Однако, и у нее бывают сбои. Так некоторые геймеры не могут войти в нее из-за назойливой ошибки LS-0013. Игроки со всего мира упоминали об этой проблеме.

Удалось выяснить, что существует 3 причины появления ошибки: отсутствие файлов игры, излишние права для запуска приложения или сбои в драйверах компонентов ПК. Зная «врага в лицо», не составляет большого труда подобрать исправления ошибки Fortnite LS-0013.

Решение 1: обновление драйверов

Если в Windows отсутствует, установлен старый или битый драйвер для одного из устройств, Fortnite нельзя будет запустить, начнет преследовать ошибка LS-0013. Стоит выполнить проверку и обновление соответствующего ПО.

Инструкция:

  1. Кликнуть ПКМ по Пуску и перейти в «Диспетчер устройств».
  2. Развернуть все вкладки и обнаружить «Неопознанные устройства» (если такие есть). Двойным кликом открыть их, взять из вкладки «Сведения» и раздела «ИД оборудования» VEN и DEV-коды. Вставить их в поиск, скачать драйвера для устройства и установить их.
  3. В разделе «Видеоадаптеры» нажать ПКМ, выбрать «Обновить драйверы» и кликнуть на вариант «Автоматический поиск обновленных драйверов».

Решение 2: выполнить проверку целостности игры

Что нужно сделать:

  1. Открыть через проводник папку с игрой, обычно это «Fortnite \ FortniteGame \ Binaries \ Win64.
  2. Найти исполняемый файл «FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping.exe», кликнуть по нему ПКМ и открыть в «Свойства».
  3. Перейти на вкладку «Совместимость» и снять флажок с пункта «Выполнять эту программу от имени администратора».
  4. Запустить Fortnite

Вот и все, теперь любимая игра Fortnite работает и позволяет снова погрузиться в масштабные баталии. Сейчас самое время попробовать занять ТОП-1.

Sometimes the Epic Game Launcher has issues with booting up a game. Don’t fret, however; there are ways to fix it.

The Epic Games Launcher software

Many players purchase, install and play Windows 11/10 games with the Epic Games Launcher, one of the best alternatives to Steam. However, if you encounter the Epic Launcher’s LS-0013 error, you’ll find that it will prevent you from playing games on the platform. Instead, you’ll see a “Launch Failed” message with the error code LS-0013.

The LS-0013 error can arise for any games players try to start with Epic Games Launcher, be it Fortnite, Genshin Impact, Rocket League, etc. As such, here is how you can fix the LS-0013 error on Windows 10 or 11.

1. Run the Epic Games Launcher as an Administrator

First, make sure your Epic Games Launcher software has full admin access on your PC. If that gaming client doesn’t have administrative rights, it can’t access restricted parts of Windows.

You can configure Epic Games Launcher to always run with special admin permissions like this:

  1. If you have a shortcut for Epic Games Launcher on your desktop, right-click it and select Properties. If not, you’ll need to right-click the EpicGamesLauncher.exe file in its installation folder (the default path is C:\Program Files (x86)\Epic Games\Launcher\Portal\Binaries\Win32\) and select Properties.
  2. Click Compatibility to access the options shown directly below.
    The Run this program as an administrator option
  3. Select the Run this program as administrator setting to enable full admin permissions for Epic Games Launcher.
  4. Make sure you press the Apply button for saving settings.
  5. Then click OK to exit the Epic Game Launcher Properties window.

Some games also have secondary third-party launchers. For example, BioShock has a 2K launcher that opens after selecting to launch the game with Epic Games Launcher. If you need to fix the LS-0013 error for a game with an additional launcher, make sure the other launcher also runs with admin rights as outlined above.

2. Disable Admin Privileges for Fortnite

This potential resolution is more specifically for fixing the LS-0013 error when it occurs with Fortnite. Surprising as it might sound, disabling (not enabling) Fortnite’s admin privileges is an official LS-0013 resolution from Epic.

Here is how you can disable admin rights for Fortnite:

  1. Open Explorer to bring up the Fortnite installation folder (C:\Program Files\Epic Games\Fortnite\FortniteGame\Binaries\Win64 is the default path).
  2. Right-click FortniteLauncher.exe and select the Properties context menu option.
  3. Deselect the checkbox for Run this program as administrator on the Compatibility tab.
  4. Select Apply and then OK at the bottom of the properties window.
  5. Repeat the previous three steps for the FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping.exe, FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping_BE.exe, and FortniteClient-Win64-Shipping_EAC.exe files.

Users have also confirmed that disabling admin privileges can fix the LS-0013 error for other games. So, this resolution might be worth a try for any game error LS-0013 occurs. To apply that fix for other titles, you’ll need to follow the same steps above for different game installation folders and EXE files.

3. Verify the Game Files

The LS-0013 error message suggests that you verify the affected game’s installation. To do that, we’re going to make use of the Epic Games Launcher’s «verify» option.

Here is how to verify a game within Epic Games Launcher:

  1. Run the Epic Games Launcher gaming client.
  2. Click Library to view your games.
  3. Next, click the ellipses button for whatever game you need to fix the LS-0013 error.
  4. Select Verify on the menu that opens.
    The Verify option
  5. Wait for the game’s verification process to finish before exiting Epic Games Launcher.

4. Clear the Epic Games Launcher Webcache Folder

Epic Games Launcher has a webcache folder that can cause the LS-0013 error when corrupted. Clearing a corrupted webcache folder will likely resolve the LS-0013 error for you.

You can clear the folder by deleting it like this:

  1. First, press Win + X and select Run to bring up an Open text box.
  2. Type %localappdata% within Run’s Open box.
  3. Select OK to open a Local folder.
  4. Click the EpicGamesLauncher > Saved folders within Explorer.
  5. Right-click webcache within the Saved folder and select Delete.
    The Delete option
  6. Then restart Windows 11/10 after deleting the webcache folder.

5. Turn Off Any Active Firewalls

Firewalls can cause issues for starting games by blocking their connections. To ensure there aren’t any firewalls blocking Epic Games Launcher, or any of its gaming titles, try disabling them.

Here is how to disable the Windows Defender Firewall:

  1. Bring up the Run dialog, and type control firewall.cpl within that app’s text box.
  2. Click OK to view the Windows Defender Firewall applet.
  3. Select the Turn Windows Defender Firewall on or off option to open settings for enabling/disabling WDF.
    The Windows Defender Control Panel applet
  4. Click both the Turn off settings, and select OK to exit.
    The Turn off Windows Defender Firewall options

If you’ve got any third-party firewall installed, make sure you disable that with its built-in settings. Third-party antivirus software can also incorporate firewall components. So, some users might need to disable antivirus utilities’ firewalls as well.

If disabling firewalls resolves the LS-0013 error, it’s not recommended that you keep them off. Instead, make sure Epic Games Launcher and affected gaming titles are allowed through them. You can configure app settings for WDF by clicking Allow an app or feature through Windows Defender Firewall within that applet. Click Change Settings there to select the Private/Public checkboxes for Epic Games Launcher.

Windows Defender Firewall's allowed app settings

6. Disable Background Programs by Clean-Booting Windows

There might be a background app interfering with the Epic software on your PC that’s causing the LS-0013 error. To resolve such a possibility, you can disable background programs and services starting with Windows by cleaning booting.

You can set Windows to clean boot by adjusting the System Configuration’s options like this:

  1. To find MSConfig, click the search box (in Windows 10) or lens icon on your taskbar. Then input the keyword msconfig and select System Configuration to open it.
  2. Uncheck Load startup items within MSConfig’s General tab to deselect that setting’s checkbox.
    The Load startup items checkbox
  3. Select Services to open that tab’s options.
  4. Click Hide all Microsoft services to select the checkbox for that setting.
    The Hide all Microsoft services checkbox
  5. Then press Disable all to disable the other non-essential services for third-party programs.
  6. Press the Apply button for saving selected settings.
  7. Click OK to close System Configuration.
  8. Select the Restart option available within the dialog box shown directly below.
    The Restart button
  9. Try launching the game for which LS-0013 occurs to see if it starts after clean booting.

If this possible resolution fixes the LS-0013 error, there probably was a background app or service conflicting with Epic Games Launcher. To identify what app it was, try manually re-enabling background programs one at a time via Task Manager’s Startup tab. You can do the same for services by reselecting their checkboxes within MSConfig’s Services tab.

7. Reinstall the Epic Games Launcher

If you’re still trying to fix the LS-0013 error after applying the above resolutions, try reinstalling Epic Games Launcher as a final resort. That will more likely resolve any deeper issues with the software’s installation than other resolutions.

Here is how to uninstall and reinstall Epic Games Launcher:

  1. Open Windows’ uninstaller utility with a method in our guide for opening Program and Features.
  2. Select your Epic Games Launcher software in Programs and Features.
  3. Press the Uninstall button for Epic Games Launcher.
    The Programs and Features Control Panel applet
  4. Click Yes to confirm that you want Epic Games Launcher uninstalled.
  5. Reboot your PC.
  6. Open the download webpage for Epic Games Launcher.
  7. Click Download Epic Games Launcher to obtain the installer for that software.
    The Download Epic Games Launcher button
  8. Open whatever folder the EpicInstaller-13.3.0 setup file downloaded in.
  9. Reinstall the Epic Games Launcher software by double-clicking the downloaded EpicInstaller-13.3.0 file.

Reinstalling Epic Games Launcher will not reinstall its games. If the LS-0013 error only occurs for one specific game, we also recommend that you try reinstalling that title. To do so, click the ellipsis button for the game in Epic Games Launcher to select Uninstall. Then you can reinstall the title with the gaming client.

The Uninstall option

Enjoy Your Epic Games Again

Those possible resolutions are widely confirmed methods for fixing the Epic Game Launcher LS-0013 error. Many users have fixed that issue with those resolutions, which will probably also resolve the same error on your PC. With the LS-0013 error fixed, you can launch, play, and enjoy your Epic game titles again.

Can’t figure out what to do with the LS-0013 error on Fortnite?

Fortnite continues to dominate its genre today, going toe to toe with PUBG. But this is no surprise at all. Given its unique gameplay, it has been expected that Fortnite will dominate its class. 

Aside from gameplay, Epic Games also pushes regular updates on Fortnite to keep players’ interest. From fun mechanics to exciting collaborations, Fortnite definitely has a lot to offer each season. 

Unfortunately, Fortnite is not flawless, and it could still encounter issues despite its position in the market. 

One of the most common problems on Fortnite is the LS-0013 error. 

This error code occurs when you launch Fortnite and prevents you from playing the game or even accessing the main menu. Sadly, there’s no apparent reason why the LS-0013 error occurs on Fortnite. 

Luckily, you’ve come to the right place. 

Today, we’ll show you the best solutions for fixing the LS-0013 error code on Fortnite. 

1. Check Fortnite Servers. 

Before changing your system configurations, we recommend checking the game’s servers first. Since Fortnite is an online game, its servers play a significant role in delivering content and features to the users. 

You can use Epic Games’ status page to check Fortnite’s current status. 

Fortnite Status

If there’s a problem with the servers, the only thing you can do for now is to wait. Since server-related issues can’t be resolved on your end, any changes to your system won’t affect the game’s status. 

On the other hand, you can proceed to the following method below if Fortnite’s servers are up and running. 

2. Restart Your System. 

One of the quickest ways to fix most issues on Fortnite is to restart your system. This should clear your temporary data, reload Fortnite’s resources, and eliminate any errors that may have occurred on your system during use. 

See the guide below to reboot your Windows PC: 

  1. On your keyboard, hit the Windows key to open the Start Menu
  2. Next, go to the Power Options tab. 
  3. Finally, choose Restart

Restart your PC

Once done, relaunch Fortnite to check if the error still occurs. 

3. Update Your Graphics Drivers. 

Fortnite needs your video card for it to run correctly on your system. If your graphics card is not working, it could cause issues with Fortnite and other games. 

To rule this out, follow the guide below to update your graphics drivers: 

  1. First, open the Quick Access Menu by pressing the Windows + X keys on your keyboard. 
  2. After that, click on Device Manager and expand the Display Adapters tab. 
  3. Lastly, right-click on your video card and choose Update Driver

Restart your system after updating your drivers and check if the LS-0013 error code still occurs on Fortnite. 

4. Verify Your Game Files. 

Some of Fortnite’s game files may have gotten corrupted due to bugs and glitches on the platform. If this is the case, use Epic Games’ built-in tool to scan and repair broken and missing game files. 

Here’s what you need to do: 

  1. Open the Epic Games launcher on your PC
  2. Next, go to the Library and right-click on Fortnite
  3. Finally, choose Verify and follow the prompts to continue.
