How do I stop the Epic Games Launcher from popping up after closing a game?

The Epic Games Launcher does not have the feature to disable this behavior.

As a workaround, you disable the Minimize to System Tray setting in the Epic Games Launcher and close Epic Games Launcher after launching a game. The launcher client should not pop up again after you have closed your game.

  1. Launch Epic Game Launcher
  2. Select the Player Icon (circle with initials) in the upper left corner
  3. Select Settings
  4. Uncheck Minimize To System Tray
