1-Under "Advanced", Reset Epic.
2-Backup data and delete Epic then re down load. Make sure it goes in the "Applications" Folder (you probably already know this)
3-Allow "Incoming communications" for Epic in Firewall options
4- You might update to MacOS Monterey as it works well on both the Intel an M1.
5- If you are using anti virus disable or make the appropriate settings to allow the download. Please check your antivirus and white-list Epic from it -- please make sure it's not quarantining any Epic files. (from Alok)
If these don't work repost. Good luck!
]]>Previously in Mojave and now also in Catalina, which I installed about a week ago, the browser often randomly freezes. The instances are somewhat frequent. Tonight it has happened twice.
I don't discern the reason for it. It seems very random, not having to do with accessing a particular website, etc. When it occurs, other apps on the computer continue to work, while Epic is entirely unresponsive.
When it happens, sometimes I can do a hard Force Quit, which has worked today. When not, I typically shut down every other app, but find I can't access the Apple (symbol) menu in the upper left corner to restart the computer — it also is frozen. The Mac also can't be shut down by the On/Off button (the button is nonresponsive). Most often, I have had to unplug the Mac to shut it down/restart it.
After the restart the Mac, then the app, Epic Privacy Browser opens and allows me to restore the tabs, thankfully. But this is problematic because it is a disruptive interruption.
