What have you tried already to fix the issue? Cleared cache, reinstalled GTA & FiveM, updated whole PC and updated NVIDIA.

What did you do to get this issue? It just randomly happend, I play this game for about 3-4 years and never had this.

What server did you get this issue on? Be specific and name some, ‘all of them’ by itself isn’t useful! No server, FiveM won’t open at all.

Do a full malware scan with MalwareBytes (or another app of your choosing, it doesn’t really matter which one) and make sure the drive you have FiveM on is fully functional and has no errors
