I launch FiveM and it starts but after a few seconds it closes with no error or anything

What is the issue you’re having?

When opening Fivem app it keeps exiting after a few seconds. When I spam open I got this error message “could not find component cache storage file (components.json)” & “citizenGame.dll”

What have you tried already to fix the issue?
