• Your computer’s startup disk may not have enough free disk space. To make disk space available, you can move files to another disk or an external storage device, then delete files you no longer need on the startup disk. MacOS can also help you optimize storage by storing files in the cloud and helping you identify files you no longer need. An app you’re using may require more memory than.
• If you’ve been updating your Mac OS to the latest version macOS High Sierra and the download is pretty damn slow, though you have a fast internet connection. We’ve tried figuring out what is the cause of the problem or there are secret hidden settings to enable to fasten its download speed.
• So why are origin download speeds bad all the time? I have a 100mbps connection, there is no excuse foe this trash. Steam can download a 50gb game in like 5 min, but a 23gb game on origin is taking 5 hours??? And I know the servers are not flooded as nobody really uses origin, and its like this all the time.

Why is the Epic Games Launcher so freaking slow!?

Is your download actually slow? Comparing Steam download speeds to your Internet connection speed: Internet and other network connection speeds are typically measured in multiples of bits per second. However, Steam downloads, like many other file downloads, are measured in multiples of bytes per second. A byte is a group of 8 bits. To compare your Steam download speed to your connection.

If you have ever used the launcher in question you will know it takes an absolute century to download and install your games. All you have to do is a simple Google search and you will see there are hundreds if not thousands of people complaining about the speed. There are some articles, forum posts, and videos suggesting making changes to the launchers Engine.ini file but sadly this did not make a single bit of difference for me and many others. If you would like to give it a try, I have put the necessary information below. What you need to do is find the Engine.ini file and edit it with a text editor of some kind, then place the recommended code below that and see if it works. Good luck out there!

Suggested methods I found to fix it…:

It even sucks after adding the recommended code:

[Portal.BuildPatch]
ChunkDownloads=3

File: C:UsersUsernameAppDataLocalEpicGamesLauncherSavedConfigWindowsEngine.ini

The read and write sections of the app are absolutely useless. If you monitor the task manager when this information is supposedly updating, it’s not. It’s all fake.

Why Does My Mac Download So Slowly Love

Please for the love of all things gaming, make your launcher not suck. Make the game download first then install it. There is literally no point in the method that is currently used. The only thing I can think of is you’re trying to save on server bandwidth by breaking up the downloads in pieces. *shrug*
