Direct answer

LS-0024 can appear when Epic Games Launcher cannot complete an entitlement check. Refresh your sign-in session and check official services before changing account settings.

Before you start

Check Epic Account Services status before signing out. If services are operational, refresh the session once rather than repeatedly resetting passwords.

Platform note

Use automatic date and time on PC or console. A device with an incorrect clock can invalidate a normal sign-in session.

Fix it step by step

Follow these steps in order. Stop when the code clears; deleting files or resetting accounts should never be the first response.

  1. 1

    Restart Epic Games Launcher.

  2. 2

    Sign out and back in once.

  3. 3

    Check Epic's public status page.

  4. 4

    Retry after service recovery if an incident is active.

If the code still appears

  1. Take a screenshot that includes the full code and the moment it appears.
  2. Note your platform, Fortnite version, connection type and the steps already completed.
  3. Check the live Fortnite status one more time.
  4. Use Epic Player Support with those details if the problem remains while services are operational.
