Please try these steps to see if they bring the extensions back.  After completing them, you may need to open / close Epic a few times before the extensions are re-installed. 

1. Close the Epic browser to ensure that no processes are actively using the user profile files.

2. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the specified path: C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Epic Privacy Browser\User Data\Default (replace "user" with your actual username).

For Macs, navigate to the Epic folder in Application Support

3. Within the "Default" folder, locate and delete the following files:

A. Preferences
B. Secure Preferences
These files store user preferences and settings, and deleting them will reset the Epic browser extensions to their default configuration.

4. After deleting these files, you can reopen the Epic browser. It should revert to its default state with default extensions. However, any extensions you installed from the Chrome Web Store or other sources will be removed, and you will need to reinstall them manually.

Remember that performing these steps will reset your browser's extensions settings, but it won't affect your bookmarks, browsing history, or other personal data, as they are typically stored separately in the browser profile folder.

Hi, I have reinstalled windows 10, epic 104.0.5.112.81, installs fine but no proxy or any extensions. tried reseting epic several times also tried as your method above - no "preferences or secure preferences! to delete. any other ideas please? TIA.
