I tried uninstalling fivem, removing everything that was conncted to it from my pc and re-install it, without success. I tried to update my video drivers. By the way my gta 5 has no mods in it. I have no idea where the problem might come from.

What do you mean with a dedicated folder for FiveM?
I just tried to reinstall it in a folder only with fivem but this “LZMA decoding error 7 in CitizenFX.exe.new” error prevents me from installing it. The only thing that happens when I launch the FiveM application is the error message appears and a new folder “FiveM.app” is created, and inside this folder is the “CitizenFX.exe.new” file:

Ok i fixed the problem. The problem was my internet which prevented me to install fivem. So I’ve just restarted my box and now it works fine. Thank you for your suggestion but i wont need your fivem folder :slight_smile:
I’m so happy i wll finally be able to play RP again
