How to fix Epic Games Launcher not downloading engine but constantly updating. (Windows and Mac)
If you live in an area with slow Internet connection and you want to be a game developer and have tried to download the Unreal Engine (The best game making engine in the world).There are some processes to get the engine.
First: Go and download the Epic games launcher (Make sure you have an epic games account)
4) Hit apply and then ok.
First: Go and download the Epic games launcher (Make sure you have an epic games account)
Second: Install it and sign in
Third: Choose engine version and start downloading.
But some people like me went through all this but everytime I opened the launcher it would start auto updating itself. So I went out to find how to stop the auto update feature (Since the launcher doesn't have it) and I located this post:
Unreal Forums.(Mac users go to this link instructions are there)
and did what I was told and now my engine is finally downloading after nearly 4 months of waiting for the auto update.
Steps
1) Right Click the epic games launcher
2) Select properties
3) In the target tab hit space bar once and paste "-noselfupdate"
4) Hit apply and then ok.
5) Launch it.
6) Enjoy.

Amazon Leaks New Xbox One Backwards Compatible Games Including Skate 2.
Amazon appears to have leaked a huge selection of new backwards compatible games that will launch on the Xbox One next month. The games that will be released for the Xbox One are mostly EA published games including Skate 2 and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit. Xbox One backwards compatibility launched in November last year and new games are added almost every week to every month. The games that are added have no announcement before they are released and most remain a surprise until they are made backwards compatible. Amazon appears to have leaked the following EA games coming to backwards compatibility, according to the listing made on the sales page for each of the games. Dragon Age II Skate 2 Fight Night Round 4 Burnout Revenge Fable Anniversary Crackdown 2 Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Among the games listed above, Halo: ODST and SSX were also rumored to be coming soon to Xbox One backwards compatibility but we haven’t heard anything officially about them yet.
Microsoft will host their E3 2016 press conference on June 14th so it is highly likely that they are going to announce a big list of games coming to Xbox One backwards compatibility at their E3 conference. We will get an official confirmation of the list of games and possibly more at the upcoming E3. Let us know what do you think about the games that are going to be backwards compatible in the comments below.

How Microsoft Can Fix the Xbox One in 2016
The Xbox One is a paradox of sorts. It has sold at a far faster clip than previous Xbox consoles, which should be celebrated. But it’s also been outsold by as much as 2-to-1 by the PlayStation 4. So “fixing” the Xbox One in 2016 is tricky: Microsoft will need to continue with what’s working while making the platform more appealing to a wider audience.
I have a few thoughts.
Price matters. The biggest takeaway from the Xbox One launch—which is sad, because this was also the biggest takeaway from the PlayStation 3 launch years earlier—is that price matters. In this case, a far-too-expensive price. The Xbox One launched at $500, fully $100 more than the PS4, and while fans will argue that you got more—e.g. the Kinect—for that price, Microsoft eventually figured out that few people wanted that, and made the Kinect optional. And, more important, lowered the price. Today, the starting price of the Xbox One is $350, the same as the PS4. And you can almost always find Xbox One bundles in the $300 range. This needs to continue.
We need another low-end console. On that note, Microsoft’s recent decision to halt production of the Xbox 360 leaves a hole in the low-end of the market, and it will need an Xbox One console to fill that gap. There are different ways to arrive at such a thing—go the Apple route and just offer refurbished/older console revisions, or rely on less expensive new silicon to create a cheaper version of the console. I vote for the latter approach, because ….
We need a higher-end console too. With Sony reportedly working on a PS4K that would ship this year and offer both 4K graphics quality and improved virtual reality (VR) capabilities, Microsoft simply must do the same. There is absolutely no reason why Xbox One games can’t ship with support for both consoles, and while existing games would simply play unchanged on the new console, new games could offer both better graphics and, when it makes sense, VR capabilities.
We need a living room solution. If there is anything less efficient for living room entertainment than the current tank-like Xbox One model, I have yet to see it. The Xbox One probably uses about 100 times as much electricity as a Roku or Apple TV, even when it’s not being used. (And my own Xbox One’s power supply is so loud—seriously, the power supply—that I routinely unplug it just to rid my office of the steady ruh-ruh-ruh-ruh sound that greats me every morning.) We need a real living room solution.
We need a Cortana box too. And some coming Xbox-based living room entertainment solution could also serve the same purpose as Amazon Echo or Google Home: A way to interact with Microsoft’s (Cortana) digital personal assistant and its back-end machine learning capabilities without needing to break out a phone or other mobile device.
User-serviceability matters. One thing that kills me about the humongous current-generation Xbox One is that the user can’t even replace the internal hard drive. There’s so much room in this box, and forcing us to use external storage is inexcusable. I would have long ago replaced the internal HDD with fast SSD storage had Microsoft simply allowed that. Which it should have. I hope they do so with gen 2, and I’d remind readers that the first two Xbox 360 generations allowed such upgrades. It was a pretty elegant system.
Performance matters. I mentioned the need for a higher-end console, but I want to call out a major issue with the current Xbox one that we as Xbox or Microsoft enthusiasts tend to sweep under the proverbial rug: The console simply doesn’t perform quickly enough. And I’m not talking about game resolutions or frame rates, another embarrassment, but rather just your basic UI speed and responsiveness. Even with the massive update from late 2015, the Xbox One UI crawls, and there is a pause or wait every time you do anything that isn’t playing an already-loaded game. Microsoft really needs to fix this.
I use the Xbox One every single day, and I prefer it over the PlayStation 4 by a fairly wide margin. But there are so many obvious areas to improve, maybe too many. As I previously reported, Microsoft will announce new hardware at E3 next month, but it’s not clear yet what that hardware will be. What it won’t be, I suspect, is one or more solutions to all of the issues I’ve raised here. But effectively relaunching the Xbox One is in fact necessary, and even Sony—which, again, dominates this market—appears to be doing so as well. This isn’t some kind of capitulation, it’s about Microsoft applying its evolution in Windows servicing to the Xbox as well. That is, just because previous console generations worked a certain way, doesn’t mean that we have to keep doing things the same way. It’s time for a major change, and the only real question is how far the Xbox team is willing to go.
Well, we’re about to find out: Microsoft’s E3 media showcase is on June 13, just three weeks from now. What we find out that week will define the Xbox One console not just for the rest of 2016 but, I think, for the remainder of this console’s lifetime.

How Amazon business marketplace could add $50 to $100 billion in value.
Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) has made a huge splash in the markets so far in 2016 as a major disrupter in the retail industry. The stock’s performance might not currently reflect this, with shares up only about 4% on the year thus far, but one key analyst sees this as a jumping off point. Keep in mind that Amazon is up over 60% from the same time last year.
Merrill Lynch reiterated a Buy rating for Amazon with an $840 price objective, implying an upside of nearly 20% from the current price level. Ultimately the firm believes that Amazon Business opportunity is widely underappreciated.
Amazon launched Amazon Supply in 2012 and re-branded the initiative Amazon Business in April 2015. It is a marketplace that combines positive attributes of Amazon’s consumer marketplace – selection, convenience and value – with features and benefits tailored to businesses, government organizations and the education sectors.
With “hundreds of millions of products” in the industrial/scientific, packaging and shipping, food service, nursing, education, building and other supply categories and integration with procurement applications, Merrill Lynch thinks Amazon Business may be a bigger opportunity than the street realizes. The company recently indicated that Amazon Business reached $1 billion in sales in its first year, is serving 300,000 customers and had 20% month-over-month growth. Issues Amazon likely will need to address in the category are the need to build out more specialized procurement platforms/interfaces and offer specialized customer service, which will aid Amazon’s ability to compete versus well established competitors.
According to Frost & Sullivan, global business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce will reach $6.7 trillion in 2020. In the U.S. alone B2B e-commerce is expected to hit $1 trillion in 2018, according to Forrester, which is more than double Merrill Lynch’s U.S. e-commerce market estimate for 2018 of $485 billion.
Merrill Lynch believes B2B provides a significant runway for growth, which could help Amazon sustain its growth rates and premium valuation for many years. The firm estimates Amazon Business 2016 gross merchandise value (GMV) at $3.5 billion, with GMV exceeding $25 billion by 2020. Furthermore, the brokerage firm sees its estimates as conservative considering the larger addressable market, very low current awareness of Amazon’s efforts in the category, and disclosure of recent category traction.
The investment rationale given by Merrill Lynch was as follows:
Amazon is an eCommerce leader with market share and margin potential stemming from its global scale, fulfillment footprint and technology platform investments. We think Amazon’s focus on the customers and the buyer experience is right for the Internet, and we consider Amazon a transformational company. We think Amazon is well positioned to capitalize on the global growth of eCommerce and other secular trends such as cloud computing, online advertising, connected devices, and mobile commerce.
Shares of Amazon were trading at $699.02 Monday morning, with a consensus analyst price target of $793.26 and a 52-week trading range of $419.14 to $722.45.

Boullier ‘not sure Ferrari is a threat’
Eric Boullier reckons McLaren can take on Ferrari at the upcoming Monaco GP as he is “not sure Ferrari is a threat.”
On a race-track where horsepower counts for little, the Racing Director heads to Monte Carlo positive about McLaren’s chances.
Last season the Woking team scored their first points of the championship in Monaco as Jenson Button crossed the line in eighth place.
This season, Boullier expects both drivers to be inside the points.
He told Autosport: “On paper we could be between six and eight, I think.”
However when it was suggested that McLaren could line up behind Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull, he all but wrote off Ferrari’s chances.
“Ferrari, not sure. Not sure Ferrari is a threat,” said the Frenchman.
“Red Bull, definitely, Toro Rosso, who have quite a good car, and Mercedes.”
And the reason he believes McLaren could get the better of Ferrari is because Boullier rates McLaren’s chassis as the third best on the grid.
“Last year we were third, but close with Williams and Ferrari,” he added.
“Now it is Mercedes, Red Bull, ourselves, then Ferrari, Toro Rosso and Williams.
“They are clearly behind now.”

Microsoft Disables Wi-Fi Sense on Windows 10
Microsoft has disabled its controversial Wi-Fi Sense feature, a component embedded in Windows 10 devices that shares access to WiFi networks to which you connect with any contacts you may have listed in Outlook and Skype — and, with an opt-in — your Facebookfriends.
Redmond made the announcement almost as a footnote in its Windows 10 Experience blog, but the feature caused quite a stir when the company’s flagship operating system first debuted last summer.
Redmond made the announcement almost as a footnote in its Windows 10 Experience blog, but the feature caused quite a stir when the company’s flagship operating system first debuted last summer.
Microsoft didn’t mention the privacy and security concerns raised by Wi-Fi Sense, saying only that the feature was being removed because it was expensive to maintain and that few Windows 10 users were taking advantage of it.
“We have removed the Wi-Fi Sense feature that allows you to share Wi-Fi networks with your contacts and to be automatically connected to networks shared by your contacts,” wrote Gabe Aul, corporate vice president of Microsoft’s engineering systems team. “The cost of updating the code to keep this feature working combined with low usage and low demand made this not worth further investment. Wi-Fi Sense, if enabled, will continue to get you connected to open Wi-Fi hotspots that it knows about through crowdsourcing.”
Wi-Fi Sense doesn’t share your WiFi network password per se — it shares an encrypted version of that password. But it does allow anyone in your Skype or Outlook or Hotmail contacts lists to waltz onto your Wi-Fi network — should they ever wander within range of it or visit your home (or hop onto it secretly from hundreds of yards away with a good ‘ole cantenna!).
When the feature first launched, Microsoft sought to reassure would-be Windows 10 users that their Wi-Fi password would be sent encrypted and stored encrypted — on a Microsoft server. The company also pointed out that Windows 10 users had to initially agree to share their network during the Windows 10 installation process before the feature would be turned on.
But these assurances rang hollow for many Windows users already suspicious about a feature that could share access to a user’s wireless network even after that user changed their Wi-Fi network password.
“Annoyingly, because they didn’t have your actual password, just authorization to ask the Wi-Fi Sense service to supply it on their behalf, changing your password down the line wouldn’t keep them out – Wi-Fi Sense would learn the new password directly from you and supply it for them in future,” John Zorabedian wrote for security firm Sophos.
Microsoft’s solution for those concerned required users to change the name (a.k.a. “SSID“) of their Wi-Fi network to include the text “_optout” somewhere in the network name (for example, “oldnetworknamehere_optout”).
I commend Microsoft for taking this step, if albeit belatedly. Much security is undone by ill-advised features in software and hardware that are unnecessarily enabled by default.
