In this article, we will tell about the cause of the issue and provide you with viable solutions that will ensure complete eradication of the problem.
What Causes the Launching Problem in FiveM?
The exact cause of the launching problem with FiveM couldn’t be specified however we have estimated a few possible causes which are Now that you are aware of the nature of the situation we will be moving on towards the solutions.
Solution 1: Disabling the Integrated GPU
If your computer has two GPUs then trying to disable the integrated GPU from interfering with the app might help with the problem therefore in this step we will be completely handing over the graphics processing of the application to the dedicated GPU for which This will completely Disable your integrated GPU if the application still does not Launch then move on towards the next step. Note: This step is only for the people with a sperate dedicated GPU.
Solution 2: Verifying Integrity of Game Files
In this step, we will be verifying the integrity of the GTA V game files in order to make sure that no game file has been corrupted or is missing and then try to open the FiveM launcher for this This process should solve any problem that the game has related to corrupt or missing game files. If your issue is not resolved by this step move on to the next
Solution 3: Disabling Firewall and Antivirus
It is also possible that the windows firewall or the antivirus installed on your system is interfering with certain elements of the game or the application. Therefore, in this step, we will be completely disabling the Windows Firewall and the Windows Defender.
Solution 4: Copying FiveM.exe File to GTA Folder
Another solution that worked for numerous users was copying the FiveM.exe into the GTA folder on your computer. The reason why this works is that FiveM requires some modules and libraries that are present in the GTA directory. If we launch the application normally, it will not have access and hence cause problems when launching or during the game. Copy the FiveM.exe file to your main GTA V folder and launch it as an administrator.
Solution 5: Deleting Temporary Files
Another last solution that we can try is deleting the temporary game files that the game has stored when operating on the computer. Whenever the game runs, it automatically creates temporary files into the AppData folder for its operation. These contain user configurations and settings that are fetched and updated by the game every now and then. However, if these are somehow corrupt, the game will experience problems. In this solution, we will navigate to the AppData directory and delete the temporary files associated with it. This step should eliminate any hurdles that the game or the application might be facing in making contact with the servers. If this step still does not solve the issue then you can try to reinstall the game and the application or contact customer support.
