FiveM will no longer recognize steam and throws two error windows on startup found below.
What are you trying to do?
Open FiveM and join a city
What have you tried already to fix the issue?
Uninstall and reinstall, turn on and off windows defender and firewall

**

What did you do to get this issue? I’m not sure, I haven’t done anything to my steam or fivem folders, only thing I can think of is I added a non-steam game to my library but I had that game installed before this error occured

What server did you get this issue on? Be specific and name some, ‘all of them’ by itself isn’t useful!
I will ignore this and say ‘all of them’ because it is not a server specific issue.

Additional comments

I did see there has been one other post here asking the same question but didn’t provide all screenshots so i’m hoping I have provided enough information for some help, thanks!

No one has any ideas?

I have finally gone through with the excruciatingly slow process of deleting and reinstalling gta and that seems to have worked, no error and I can join the server without a steam error
