Could not validate game ownership after successful steam rockstar entitlement validation windows 11, steam

[Q2This]

What is the issue you’re having?

FiveM shows could not validate game ownership even though Steam and Rockstar Games launchers successfully validate my GTA5 ownership i’m on Windows 11 with Steam version GTA5 I reinstalled 5M and Rockstar Games launcher verified files confirmed non admin cleared cleared cache checked time settings and logs show successful entitlement validation right before the error.

What have you tried already to fix the issue?

I have already tried the following:
reinstalled 5M
reinstalled Rockstar games launcher
verify GTA5 files to steam
clear the 5M cache
confirm 5M steam and Rockstar are not running as administrator
signed out and back into steam and Rockstar games launcher
restarted my PC multiple times
confirmed windows date time and time zone are set correctly and auto updating
confirmed steam detects and launches GTA 5 successfully
confirmed Rockstar Games Launcher launches GTA5 successfully
reviewed five in logs showing successful entitlement validation before the ownership error
searched the CFX .D forums where multiple users report the same issue without a working fix.

What server did you get this issue on?
