I think the error is from Heroic and not Fortnite, because some parts of heroic I get the same error

And in Fortnite it gives me only this log: Launching "Fortnite" (legendary) Native? Yes Installed in: E:\Games\Fortnite

I can't pinpoint why exactly the log looks like that, but it seems that your system is lacking PowerShell - If this is a "debloated"/"optimized" install of Windows: Modified operating systems are not supported - If it isn't: Open up a command prompt and run these two commands:
where powershell
echo %PATH%

where powershell
echo %PATH%

I was able to fix it, I remember that I made changes in Path system variable, but I think I accidentally removed the powershell Thanks for your help!
