The patch has messed everything up. I am stuttering and crashing and sometimes my game wont launch either. Try validating the installation, that helped me launch again but it still crashes within a few minutes into a mission.

How do you validate an installation ?

Anybody have any other helpful solutions ?

It looks like a random glitch where the launcher itself gets corrupted. I get this problem on one of my computers fairly often, pretty much every time the game gets patched or updated. The only solution I found is to do a clean uninstall of Fortnite and the Launcher, and then install all over again. Make sure you uninstall using a good uninstaller, delete everything including all folders, directories and shortcuts. I use CC Cleaner and finish up with manual cleanup. So far always works after that.
