if you cannot delete the base "Rockstar Games" folder you need to load windows 10-11+ above into safe mode by fully restarting the computer going into safe mode by pressing "F8" onto the computer going back to the rockstar games folder and deleting it. the error occurs when ether.. A. you recently reset the computer, and one drive reinstalled it improperly forgeting files. B. you didn't properly uninstall by deciding go to the root files and uninstall manually by deleting the files. C you had modifications for a multiplayer server/single player, and it wasn't properly placed ont the direct folders/ "modification" area. F8 > Safe Mode. ThisPC/Documents/Rockstar Games/

i download game, play for 2 hours. turn off the pc and then wake up tommorow with game not working. after spending 5 hours trying to fix it i gave up and uninstalled only to see this video where so many people said it fixed it. i download the game again and after 5 minutes the game now works. you are a legend!

[@falcongenix]

Thank you man for taking the time to make this video to help other people! Following your exact steps along with the pinned comment ontop, fixed the problem!!

[@YTLG]

YO MY GUY YOU LITERALLY SAVED ME I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO LAUNCH GTA FOR OVER A FEW MONTHS NOW UNTIL I DISCOVERED YOUR VID KEEP UP THE WORK YOU EARNED A SUB MY MAN THANK YOU SO MUCH.

[@JulioDagulio]

In 2024 do you need to uninstall the 2015-2022 Redistributable files?

[@pmjaze3209]

This tutorial really helped me and got my game to work again. Every other video I watched did not help with my problem but this video did. I really appreciate the help that this video gave me. Love you

[@bryanbishop2081]

Thanks man. Tried doing all the driver updates, deleting the launcher and game and reinstalling them and still didn’t work. Removing everything else you said to finally made it so I could play again. Much appreciated

[@recubogdan9805]

Man thank you, you are the best, I was looking for a tutorial for 2 several days, I even reinstall my windows , you are a lifesaver

[@Sexondhand]

It’s been months for me

[@davidveremej7189]

Thank you so much, I spent 4 days trying to repair the game and with your help it was finished in 10 minutes. No one could help me except you

[@hync5077]

You´re a G. Thank you so much man. 6 months of unworking GTA now ended thanks to you.

[@Turnb11]

This fixes the launcher freezing on startup for anyone else having that issue. Thanks man

[@Harbour-ml2it]

a year later and it still works, i love you

[@JoeyMobBoss]

Thanks you so much. I tired for hours to get the Rockstar Games app to launch games and I failed every time until I found your video. I can’t fully express my appreciation. 👊

[@DocHoliday444]

Strange how I basically did this before, but now it actually worked doing it your way! So thanks a lot for putting this up:)

[@SharkyGamess]

Holy f*****n crap man, it worked!!! Legit I've been trying to fix this stupid frustrating issue for a full year!!! I've watched and done so many different tutorials and options and nothing worked at all, until I came across your vid! I can't believe it thanks so much brother 🙏🏻 bless!

[@CCitis]

This is the one that fixed it for me. Tried many things, didn’t play RDR2 for 2 years. This worked.

[@seanhuds7351]

Rockstar Games Social club has literally prevented me from ever being able to easily download and play any Rockstar game, first time, without it being an infuriating F*** about.

[@andrewwolfz9264]

thank you so much man, ive been trying to find tutorials for the past 6 months. THANKS!

[@dontreadthis8254]

been trying to figure this out for hours now and this was the only thing that worked, thanks man!

[@mjperez1007]

Thanks bro this actually worked for me and like you said there was no tutorials for it but thanks a ton for this. Saved me so much time.

[@juangarciaherrera2097]

Thx bro i tried everything i saw in different videos nothing worked, this finally did after a long time, UR the GOAT

[@mohitmonnappa7956]

Thank you so much dude. I've watched so many videos and followed their exact steps but couldn't get it to work. After watching your's it ran like a charm. Thank you so much!!

[@Scrufflelump]

Bro, you are my hero! This totally fixed the problem. The actual game file was being listed as the launcher on the task manager this whole time. It took me a few days to figure that out, because I realized that the launcher was using up 30% of my CPU and that was very unusual. This fixed that, so now the game actually launches. However, because life is never fair, I've run into a new problem, which is that the game, when loading, tries to initialize the social club infinitely and it never does. I'm now stuck on the opening loading screen, unable to get inside the game. But thank you so much for getting me past that first problem!

[@LIVE3DPrinting]

Thank you SO much!! I was about to pull my hair out and could find NOTHING on how to fix this issue, not sure how I found your video, but I am up and running again! Thank you again! YOU are the real ROCKSTAR!

[@ponch0429]

DUDE YOU DESERVE HEAVEN, THIS WAS LITERALLY THE ONLY VIDEO THAT WORKED FOR ME, AFTER LIKE 3 MONTHS WITHOUT GETTING IT TO WORK, THANK YOU ABSOLUTELY

[@chasekb22]

Just wanted to say thanks man. This is the only tutorial that actually worked. Thanks again

[@petruska111]

thanks my game would always be stuck on " Installing Prerequisites : social club" couldnt find ANY tutorial that would help me , but doing this and uninstalling every trace of the rockstar launcher (and gta cause it was installed on rockstar launcher) so yeah this was the only thing that helped me THank YOU SO MUCH

[@thrashermosher419]

Oh my god, literally the only fix on the internet that works! My launcher wasn't even opening, it was running on task manager and unable to terminate there, but you couldn't open it anywhere because it was "running". I figured out by myself that I had to reinstall the whole deal, but I had the OneDrive issue and didn't uninstall the visual studio stuff, your video helped with both of those and got it working! Thank you so much man.

[@MarUpLive]

Same problem I had bro

[@LS1PWER]

What is the Onedrive issue mentioned? can you explain, I did everything step by step on the video but it still doesnt work for me.

[@kingsgone298]

Watched so many other videos and u were the only one that made it clear and straight to the point and urs actually worked excellent work bro !

[@lewisp4020]

Cheers mate been trying to fix my launcher for the past couple days come across you’re video and it fixed it.

[@axz.173]

when i say i literally tried everything i mean i tried every tutorial, i think what worked for me is the deletion of rockstar games from the documents part. I never did that before i just uninstalled it from control panel and removed the desktop icon. Anyways you’re a godsent and Thank you so much. p.s i couldn’t delete it from documents tab first but i opened one drive and it got deleted immediately. Definitely earned a subscriber

[@a90yroldman]

Oh my God, I do not know how much to thank you. I spent 7 1/2 hours trying to figure out what was wrong with my computer and just like you I couldn’t find any tutorials until now and it actually worked. I was losing my mind. thank you so so so much.

[@aidengillzy]

Thanks mate, not boring at all! Actually solved the issue!

[@clixy4161]

Thank you so much man. I spent many hours trying to solve this problem your the best

[@Carphi2000]

It didn't work right away after the tutorial. But with a small fix it did. Whenever I ran the Launcher Patcher, it would create a new Rockstar Games folder on my secondary hard drive, but only with the folder "Launcher" inside of it. The Rockstar Games folder needs to be complete with the folders "Social Club" and "Launcher". And apparently it needs this complete Rockstar Games folder on BOTH hard drives. Only then it worked for me, no idea why. I think the tutorial also helped, thanks man!

[@mackjack984]

Duuuude thanks man, U've saved me fing more Hours of Searching. I've searched for Hours for tutorials and stuff but no luck., Except ur tutorual TY!

[@ariyanandachu1125]
