Need help fixing "506. Failure connecting to the Rockstar Games Launcher! (ExitCode = 506)

[TheOnlyArth]

What is the issue you’re having?

I load FiveM and try to connect to a server, and when I connect, it says “restart FiveM.” After I press on “restart,” it gives me this error code.

What have you tried already to fix the issue?

I uninstalled FiveM and Rockstar multiple times as well as restarting my PC.

What server did you get this issue on?

All
