  • Next, select Properties > Go to the Compatibility tab.
  • Click to tick the checkbox called ‘Run this program as an administrator’.
  • Now, click on Apply > Click on OK.
  • Then go to the Predator: Hunting Grounds game file either from desktop or directly from the Epic Games Launcher.
  • Do the same thing as above. Make a right-click on the game file > Head over to the installed location > Select Properties > Select Compatibility tab and tick the checkbox of Run this program as an administrator.
  • Finally, launch your game and the error won’t appear anymore.

However, if you’re still facing the same problem, then check the next method.

2. Verify Game Files

  • Open the Epic Games Launcher.
  • Head over to the Library section.
  • Click on the three dots icon next to the Fortnite game > Click on Verify.
  • The verifying process may take some time and if there is any missing file, it will be fixed automatically. So, wait for it.
  • Once done, restart your Epic Games Launcher and run the Predator: Hunting Grounds game.

3. Update Epic Games Client

Some times an outdated Epic Games Launcher version can also cause issues during game startup.

  • First of all, close the Epic Games Launcher from the taskbar by right-clicking on it and then click on Exit.
