You are not alone if you are trying to figure out how to fix the Unable to start the game and accept permissions errors on Epic Games. The error commonly prevents users from launching the Saints Row reboot, and the reason is unknown. Luckily, some users managed to get past the error by performing rigorous troubleshooting steps.
However, none of these troubleshooting steps are 100 percent guaranteed to fix the problem. Some steps may need to be done multiple times before achieving the desired results. Another issue is that some steps may only work once or not even work at all.
Because of this, you may need to wait for an official fix from either Epic Games or Volition before the error goes away for good. We recommend the following troubleshooting steps to fix the Unable to start the game and accept permissions error on Epic Games error on Saints Row:
- Restart PC
- Restart Game
- Relaunch Epic Games
- Reinstall Saints Row
- Verify Files
We recommend starting with the most simple steps from the steps listed above. That said, begin with restarting Saints Row 2022 and restarting your Epic Games Launcher. If neither step works, try restarting your PC, but if restarting your PC doesn't work, your next step should be to verify your game files.
