Where did your PlayGTAV.exe go?

Jason860 · 2019-03-29T15:31:54.579Z

you said rename it

TheIndra · 2019-03-29T15:33:56.296Z

Please don’t rename that .exe to gta5.exe those are different (as far as i know)

Please verify your game files as you are lacking one of the executables

Basicly open CMD and type

cd c:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto V

then

GTAVLauncher.exe -verify

and let it verify

the CD version uses PlayGTA5.exe the reason i said to try renaming it is because FiveM is looking for GTA5.exe.

EDIT: Can ignore this bit too because once again, my memory sucks

TheIndra · 2019-03-29T15:37:22.162Z

But PlayGTA5.exe and GTA5.exe are both different files (check the file size for example)

Painwithin · 2019-03-29T15:37:43.871Z

Of course they are, but they do the same thing in the end.

Jason860 · 2019-03-29T15:38:40.334Z

what is cmd and how

Painwithin · 2019-03-29T15:38:56.820Z

Are you able to play online?

Jason860 · 2019-03-29T15:42:58.745Z

I need ur number or email or something gonna run outta of thread

Painwithin · 2019-03-29T15:44:29.896Z

No you wont, simply answer the last question, are you able to play GTA online?

Jason860 · 2019-03-29T15:45:32.946Z

no because Rockstar took my activation key and then bounced back so I never go it

Painwithin · 2019-03-29T15:46:44.667Z

then this would probably be your problem, you have to have a valid game license.

Are you able to play single player?

Wait, do you mean you got banned from Online?

Jason860 · 2019-03-29T15:48:46.836Z

no not banned they messed up the activation code it didn’t go threw when I put it back in it said it was taken

TheIndra · 2019-03-29T15:49:27.831Z

Well contact rockstar games, as FiveM requires a legit GTA5 copy. You gta5 installation is also lacking files so you need it to repair it

Jason860 · 2019-03-29T15:49:37.660Z

I cant play single player because it make me log into social club

Painwithin · 2019-03-29T15:49:44.900Z

well, you do need a valid license key on your social club account.

anyway, if you are able to play singleplayer then your game is fully intact.

if this game is pirated it will not work.

Jason860 · 2019-03-29T15:50:13.901Z
