If you updated the GeForce Drivers recently it automatically enabled GeForce Overlay in settings within GeForce Experience. Turn that off and it will run as normal just played LSPDFR for 2.5 hours after figuring this out... Hope this helps others 🙂

what problems this was causing ?

the geforceoverlay is known to cause problems, specific to crashing gta right after loading / while loading or not even starting it.

In the title.. but basically it was blocking rage plugin from hooking the game so it would only go to single player and not LSPDFR. Regardless of running as admin etc. 

That still didn't do anything. Maybe I'm installing LSPDFR into a GTA copy folder and that isn't allowed? I have to install it into the main folder? Seems lame if you ask me

If you install into a copy folder [Grand Theft Auto-copy] the game will not be read. Remove copy and it should work. Rename other folder which I'm assuming is the unmodded base game to Grand Theft Auto-Default

Got it, So the copy folder of gta I had to name it "Grand Theft Auto V" for me to launch LSPDFR off of it.

This worked for me. I hate Geforce Experience...

Thank you!!!  After 3 days of trying everything, this is what was making my game crash.

Bro same here. I was so happy when I finally found out what it was

 

I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your answer for your game's issue. This was exactly my issue after the new GTA 5 update, and I couldn't play LSPDFR for 2 months, so I started playing LCPDFR again. Most people don't share how they solved their game issues, but thank you for being one of the few who do. You saved me from having to update a heavily modified game build.
