I've tried launching Fortnite for the 1st time, but it keeps crashing - Help!

Here's the issue:

I've tried launching Fortnite on the XBOX app (and from the Start Menu) after downloading for the first time, and this is the weird part: the Microsoft Store Package Dependency Installer keeps asking for some permission to changes to my device. It doesn't matter if I say yes or no. If I do, it'll just say:

"This action is only valid for products that are currently installed"

Then Fortnite will ask for permissions, and if I say yes or no, it'll just show the image.

Sometimes, Fortnite WON'T ask for permission, and instead will say something about XBOX Live.

WHAT I HAVE TRIED:

  • Restarted (twice)
  • Updated
  • Checked settings (still confused on what I'm supposed to do)
  • Replicated the error a million times.

I have a laptop with 6 GB of storage left (Fortnite took up most of it). It auto-upgraded to Windows 11 (used to be Windows 10), and was bought some time around 2022.

PLEASE DO NOT FLAME ME FOR MY STUFF.

I SWEAR I'M NOT EDGY I HAVE A GOOD REASON

SO BASICALLY I WAS OBSESSED WITH AVATAR THE LAST AIRBENDER AND I SAW THIS ANIMATION CALLED "AZULA'S R" AND I THOUGHT THE ANIMATION WAS COOL AND SO I LOOKED UP THE SONG ON SPOTIFY WHEN I GOT MY NEW EMAIL AND I LISTENED TO IT I SWEAR I'M NOT DEPRESSED
