Filepath to RedM folder C:\Users\Caldryk\Desktop\RedM

RedM client folder screenshot http://prntscr.com/snmeax

Did you try to disable/uninstall your Anti-virus? Yes

Did you start Rockstar Games Launcher not as admin? Yes

Also add what you already tried so far. Tried reseting host file from system32, change steam email from my account to the same as rockstar account, uninstalling RedM multiple times, reset cache folder correctly, restart computer, close steam and reopen.

Main Thing : I want to play in a whitelisted server which use steam id 64 to whitelist people (quite casual) but when I open steam, then R Launcher and then RedM, I see black screen for about 10 seconds and then poof… end of process & crash log. If I close steam, I can launch redM correctly, browse servers… So It might be something like the network gateway between steam and Rockstar that is broken or something.
Any help is appreciated, thanks a lot !

Up,
Seems to work when I reinstall redM, everytime I need to reinstall. Any help please ?

Happen to have a controller plugged in? For whatever reason steam + controllers + redm launching doesn’t get along sometimes, can plug it back in after redm is open.

Hope this helps you since looks like you’ve been trying everything you can :confused:
