"Could not read data from the Rockstar Launcher..", can't run SC as non-admin!!

So i can’t run the RedM client because i get the error “Could not read data from the Rockstar Launcher…”. When i try to run Social Club without admin,l i get an error that it wasnt installed correctly, and to contact support. If i run social club as admin, it loads fine.

So im stuck - can’t run RedM because it cant read Admin Social Club, cant run Social Club as non-admin. Spent a couple hours trying to find a solution, any post specfici to this issue has gone unanswered, and all other solutions for problems even remotely related to my issue havent worked.
