Yeah, it still works until Rockstar updates their launcher and you're back to square one. Screw Rockstar and their BS I've been dealing with since I HAD to install it to run their games.
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.
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
Bro can you help me because when I open rockstar games it works but when I click open gta5 with steam it sais loading and then it’s closing it don’t opens gta
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.
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!
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!!
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
OMFG I LOVE YOU!!!!!! U FIXED IT!!!!!! to anyone who cant open the launcher or uninstall because it says rockstar is running some where do the steps in this vid and download rockstar launcher to ur onedrive!!!!!
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.
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!
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
BRO YOU ARE A THE BEST LIVING THING ON THIS PLANET, I HOPE YOU END UP WITH A BEAUTIFULL WIFE (OR HANDSOME HUSBAND) AND ALL OF YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE, I LOVE YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART NEVER CHANGE
Thanks, man! You can't imagine how frustrated I've been for the last several months. I've re-installed Windows a few times trying to get the Rockstar games launcher to work and your method worked perfectly for me when I tried it.
After following the tutorial and restarted my PC, I launch up GTA and play on my phone expecting the game to not launch. But holy smokes man, you should've seen the smile on my face. Thanks for the video man
@@9_mo5yt70 sometimes you get an error uninstalling that file, but if you go and make sure you’re signed into Microsoft Onedrive on your pc, you shouldn’t get the error uninstalling the file
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.
hey i really need help. when i open rockstars launcher the sign in button loads. like i put in all my info to log in and when i push log in the button just shows a circle spinning. if you can please reply with a answer please. THANK YOU
You just earned a sun from me thank you man I love you for finally fixing my issue I went down the line with support and everything too absolutely no help. You are amazing
Brother I recently purchased GTA V on steam .when I open the game it's always on with Rockstar launcher and appears as a loding screen few times later it's suddenly shows quitting and it's won't turn on PLEASE HELP 😢
@@GurtejSingh-vd8uf uninstall rockstar launcher and after uninstall play the game then it will automatically download rockstar launcher my problem was solved by this method
on the part that u want me to delete the microsoft visual C++ 2015-2019, i only have the microsoft visual C++ 2015-2022, should i delete those or leave it?
I did the steps in the video but when I launch the Launcher is taking forever to load and it just doesn't load this isn't just my pc being bad because I have played online before. After I reverted to windows 10 it started doing this so I went back up to 11 and it kept doing so I went back. I have searched everywhere for this problem and I can't find it anywhere.
Man thanks for saving this stupid rockstar error. Didnt work for days and you solved it. Mad love bro. I did all you said but didnt delete the microsoft 2015. Worked for me
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
thank you so much man i have looked for tutorials for almost 3hours non of them works but yours did.... thanks man you are really helpful. you just earned a sub
really surprise it is work I tried many times when I watched other videos, but it did not work. However, when I watch this video, it undoubtedly works. thx bro
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!!
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!
Wow it finally worked! The Onedrive issue is a must!. Documents folder with Rockstar Game folder must be completely deleted for it to work. The only way to delete the folder is to install Onedrive and add the (This PC) Documents) Rockstar Games folder to the Onedrive folder and then delete it for it to be completely removed from the pc.
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!
Fantastic, you should charge Rockstar for getting people back onto their game, I asked the help team, totally useless, they either had no idea or just not interested, and that a bit silly when I think of how much Ive paid into the game, not just buying the game. Thanks very much for yout time and effort ;)
Damn this actually worked ! I had a problem where I couldn’t delete the file so I had to UA-cam a video on a error that I kept getting because I couldn’t delete the file
