Two Different Errors w/ Every Fix

What is the issue you’re having?

Started out running RedM.exe, it downloaded the update files, but it gets stuck when validating entitlement tokens. I receive error code 500, error generating ROS entitlement token.

When I try different fixes for that, the new error becomes exit code 500, failure to connect to Rockstar Games Launcher instead.

What have you tried already to fix the issue?

• Running RedM after running Rockstar Launchers as some folks suggested this.
• Deleting Social Club profile files in documents.
• Deleting Rockstar Games folder in documents.
• There is no FiveM folder in AppData\Romaing for me to delete.
• There is no CitizenFX folder in AppData\Roaming for me to delete.
• Uninstalled RedM and reinstalled.
• Logged out of Rockstar Games Launcher so that I log in when RedM opens it.
• Whitelisting both programs in Windows Firewall.
• Turning off Windows Firewall.
• I have ensured Steam is opened as described on one of the servers for RedM when trying to launch RedM, though I tried with it closed just in case.

Update:
I failed to mention that I had also updated my BIOS and GPU drivers in the original post. However, after trying a little bit of everything I could find to fix this error, I eventually got to the point where I was getting a Vulkan memory error instead.

In the case that anyone happens to come across this thread, the only fix I’ve found that worked for the Vulkan error is pressing Win+Ctrl+Shift+B to reset graphics. This is the only consistent fix I’ve found and I’ve been able to use RedM perfectly the last 2 days.
