RedM problems!

What is the issue you’re having?

For about two weeks, or a little more, I’ve been seeing the error as shown in the attached image.
I want to point out that I’m having no problems with FiveM.
I’ve already performed the following steps:

  • Clean boot
  • Antivirus exclusions
  • SDK check
  • Boot without antivirus
  • Activation of Rocstar and Redm services on both public and private networks.
  • Drivers
  • I also formatted “SOB” on the PC.
    Nothing, the problem persists and I can’t figure it out.
    Does anyone know how to fix it?
    Thanks in advance everyone

Today, without having done anything, everything temporarily went back to normal. Let’s hope it stays that way!

Never mind! Again, is it possible there are no solutions?

Replying to hopefully learn a solution as I’m in the same boat :upside_down_face:

I don’t know if this can happen with RedM but I’ve seen it happen with FiveM, so we can give it a try.

Sometimes the Launcher can get confused that you own the game on Steam when you actually don’t. It tries to initialize a “Steam minlaunch mode” and gives that error. The solution is to make sure Steam is fully closed from the system tray, near the clock.

If this doesn’t fix the issue for you, can you send me this file in DMs or on Discord (@gogsi123)

i have the game on steam.
The problem is the launcher, which only gives that error on RDR2. The launcher gives that error immediately!
After almost a month of emails with Rockstar Support, they said they didn’t know how to fix it. I should contact a local technician.

Ok, yes. Your error seems different judging by the log file.

Have you tried following these steps to do a clean reinstall of the Launcher? It might fix some stuff that just a basic uninstall won’t
