Let\u2019s begin!<\/p>\n<h2>How to Uninstall the Epic Games Launcher: Reasons and Solutions<\/h2>\n<p>Most users have the same problem: they can\u2019t uninstall Epic Games Launcher from their PC. Well, we will shed light on why the app might refuse to disappear and how to fix the problem.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><b>\ud83d\udccc Also read: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/how-to-uninstall-programs-in-windows-10\/\">So Easy to Do: How to Uninstall Programs and Apps on Windows 10\/11?<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Reason 1: The app is still running in the background<\/h3>\n<p>Usually, if you can\u2019t delete the Epic Games Launcher, it may be because it\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/how-to-stop-apps-from-running-in-the-background-on-windows-10-pc\/\">still running in the background. <\/a>Even if the app is closed, some processes can secretly keep on running.\u00a0 <strong><div class=\"benefit\">\r\n    <div class=\"benefits__heading\">\r\n        <div class=\"benefits__image\">\r\n            <img data-src=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Benefits_Business.png\" alt=\"IMG\" class=\"lazyload\"\/>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <div class=\"benefits__title\">How to solve it <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"benefits__content\"><\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/strong>Ensure the application is not running in the background. You can do that by opening the Task Manager ( <code>Ctrl + Shift + Esc<\/code> ). After that, check out any processes connected with the Epic Games Launcher to see if it\u2019s active. If so, right-click it and hit <i>End task. <\/i>You can also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/keyboard-magic-how-to-shut-down-restart-or-put-windows-pc-to-sleep-with-a-keyboard\/\">restart your computer<\/a> to stop any background apps that are still running. Then try uninstalling the launcher again.<\/p>\n<h3>Reason 2: Some files associated with the launcher are still running<\/h3>\n<p>You can probably experience issues deleting the app from your PC if some files that are related to the launcher are still running. Another reason could be that your game crashed. In this case, some leftovers can still be in use.<\/p>\n<p><strong><div class=\"benefit\">\r\n    <div class=\"benefits__heading\">\r\n        <div class=\"benefits__image\">\r\n            <img data-src=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Benefits_Business.png\" alt=\"IMG\" class=\"lazyload\"\/>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <div class=\"benefits__title\">How to solve it <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"benefits__content\"><\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how to deal with this situation:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Check the Task Manager to see if any of the Epic Games Launcher-related files are still running.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">If so, close them down using the tips from the previous solution.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Now, check if you can uninstall the app.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Reason 3: Delete other components or programs one by one<\/h3>\n<p>One more reason why you can\u2019t close and uninstall the Epic Games Launcher is that you first need to delete other components or programs like the game files connected to it.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you\u2019ve already deleted some PC games, it can interfere when you decide to uninstall the launcher itself. And that\u2019s because they still have related files on your system.<\/p>\n<p><strong><div class=\"benefit\">\r\n    <div class=\"benefits__heading\">\r\n        <div class=\"benefits__image\">\r\n            <img data-src=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Benefits_Business.png\" alt=\"IMG\" class=\"lazyload\"\/>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <div class=\"benefits__title\">How to solve it <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"benefits__content\"><\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The first step is to open the game launcher and remove any games associated with the app. However, this will leave some residual files behind, so you have to take care of that as well.<\/p>\n<p>The best and easiest method is to use a third-party program, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/software\/boost-speed\/\">Auslogics BoostSpeed <\/a>.
