Newcomer / Intro Epic Issues

I bought for free ED from Epic Games today. I installed it but it corrupted my exisitng launcher and now keeps asking me to log in when I lauch the launcher. I uninstalled epic games launcher. I would like to know how to puit things back as they were. If I launch from steam all is good and my current commander seems fine but I would like my launcher back. Dont know why I bought it - or was it because it is free.
 
Sorry to hear that it messed up your system.
I was afraid something ike that could happen, so I made a separate Windows user just for the Epic freebie. Works like a charm (once I got past the "redeem code", error 500, "you must purchase E: D" stuff).
 
It is so complicated to play a game these days. I only want to install the game on my hard drive and play. Instead I have steam and launchers and other complications. I bought ED from Epic because it was free and I fancied having another account. Steam and Epic seem to just hijack your gameplay to sell you stuff. What benefit is steam to actually playing the game?
 
There are many posts spread across these forums relating difficulties with the Epic-acquired Elite Dangerous. One that offers advice (apparently very good advice) and isn't just a call for help is this one:

I hope that you can get stuff sorted out! Perhaps there is some help in that thread. Members of this community who continually try helping others by doing things like that are really great people!
