    after I deleted the folders you told me to delete I cant delete the Rockstar game launcher & rockstar games social club it says " it cannot find the folder for the 2 application im trying to delete I think that's because you told me to delete those folders before I can even uninstall the apps.

    • @spudgunner7075
      @spudgunner7075 Před měsícem

      if you cannot delete the base "Rockstar Games" folder you need to load windows 10-11+ above into safe mode by fully restarting the computer going into safe mode by pressing "F8" onto the computer going back to the rockstar games folder and deleting it. the error occurs when ether.. A. you recently reset the computer, and one drive reinstalled it improperly forgeting files. B. you didn't properly uninstall by deciding go to the root files and uninstall manually by deleting the files. C you had modifications for a multiplayer server/single player, and it wasn't properly placed ont the direct folders/ "modification" area.

      If the solution works, at least the users can play the game now. Previously, they could not play the game at all, so a few extra hours of waiting should not matter as long as they can eventually play the game.

    This process wasted my time and forced me to reinstall the entire game, certain programs, and manually mod my game again. Totally could have mentioned that you were going to just have to reinstall the entire game instead of making it seem like removing the Rockstar launcher would just allow the game to play normally - like Rockstar games did on consoles back in the day - and I'm pretty annoyed. My issue was not being able to launch GTA 5 on my Mac using Parallels. Thanks for wasting my time, maybe it's the language barrier, but congrats on making a long winded explanation of something simple as "uninstall everything and reinstall".

    First Uninstall rockstar launcher and social club
    Download a fresh version of rockstar launcher from their official site
    Once installed right click rockstar games launcher and click properties, then go under compatibility mode
    uncheck Run in Compatibility mode (mine was running on windows 7 mode),
    then check Run as Administrator, then click apply
    That worked for me hopefully it helps others.
