I log out but the Epic Games Launcher keeps logging me back in on the wrong account

Clearing your web cache If you find yourself caught in a loop where you log out but Epic Games Launcher keeps automatically logging you back in typically solves this issue. If it continues after clearing the cache try logging in with an incognito window.

Clear Launcher Cache

The cache files contain information about previous uses of the launcher. Deleting these files, and then letting the launcher rebuild them again can sometimes resolve issues like this. Follow the steps from the article How do I clear the Launcher cache on PC?
