I keep getting an error code while trying to boot up Fortnite. It's 20002, open service failed, and I haven't been able to find it anywhere. However, it only pops up about 80-90% of the time I try to boot up the game. I haven't noticed any patterns. The most similar code I've found is 20006, and have already done everything people say to fix that error code (verify game files after deleting them, deleting then redownloading the game, deleting and reinstalling easy anti-cheat, deleting then verifying easy anti-cheat files). I've also sent in a support ticket to Epic Games, but it's been a week, and I don't really trust they will get back super quick, so if someone on here can help me quicker, that might be nice.
