So, some weird things have been happening to my LSPDFR and GTA V recently and I could really use some help. It has been almost eight months since I have played LSPDFR and wanted to get back into it, so I figured that I would get the most recent updates for GTA V, LSPDFR, RPH etc. When I re-downloaded GTA V from Steam again, everything started up fine. However, when I downloaded LSPDFR into my GTA V directory, my steam_api64.dll file automatically gets deleted. Now after the api64 file was deleted, GTA V and RPH would not load at all and GTA V is telling me to verify my game cache. I had to then reacquire the steam_api64.dll file and now everything will at least run up to the point start up. But as soon as it gets to start up, my game crashes. Now the next hurdle I have had to jump through is that my RPH was crashing almost immediately on validating hook. It took me a while to figure out that I needed to disable my new antivirus as my computer was interpreting RPH as a trojan file. Once I turned off my antivirus and firewall, GTA V and RPH will start loading normally, however, as RPH runs through all of the start up files and GTA V is loading in the background, I then get an ERROR code with RPH stating that RPH has insufficient permissions or bad anti-virus. Not sure what else to do here.. log is below:

Did you only have one RPH running?

I only have the one RPH running which was the RPH included in the LSPDFR download only, as specified in new LSPDFR instructions. 

Try to run RPH as an administrator.

Yeah I tried that as well, I still get the same error message 

Had the same issue. For me, it ended up being GeForce overlay was causing RPH not to load. Once I turned off the overlay, game loaded without any problems

Just got home and tried this out, still no luck. My entire GTA V and RPH is still crashing on startup with the same error code 😕 Its been a week now of me messing around with different settings and I still cant get LSPDFR or RPH to work properly. 

Some people have luck disabling Real Time Protection during start-up, and then re-enable after RPH successfully hooked onto the game.

*******FIXED******** It's rather funny, as I was typing that last message, I decided to re-install LSPDFR but I went with the Manual Install this time. After installing the Manual LSPDFR file, I went into my game directory and gave EVERYTHING administrator privileges', including the Rockstar Launcher and RPH instead of clicking on "run as administrator" each time. I also updated by GeForce Drivers and disabled the overlay feature as mentioned above, even though that did not seem to work. However, I at least got everything up and running again. Thanks everyone for your assistance. @WithLithumand @burbindave
