I redownloaded GTA 5 after player LSPDFR earlier this year. When I was installing LSPDFR and going through the first time setup I pressed show license and nothing was shown, a couple seconds after it just appeared as a checkmark. I didn't think much of it and when I double clicked on the RAGEPluginHook.exe I was shown with nothing. I only got the loading animation on my cursor for like two seconds then it disappeared. I also checked task manager and saw that RPH was there but only for a couple of seconds. I've tried everything like installing LSPDFR manually and even went into the RPH discord server but no one would help me. I've installed all the requirements and also added the Grand Theft Auto V folder and RAGEPluginHook.exe to my excluded files in my antivirus.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Do not use the configurator. Use the manual download of LSPDFR and drag and drop everything except the Licenses folder into the Main Directory.

I've done that, yet it still doesn't work.

Download and install ScriptHookV, drag and drop dinput8.dll and ScriptHookV.dll to the main GTA V directory.

Yep, sadly still nothing appears.

Launch GTA V first. Then once fully in-game, tab out and launch RPH.

Yea I've tried that. The problem is that when I double click on RAGEPluginHook.exe nothing pops up.

Go to here. Check under the section "RagePluginHook doesn’t open after double-clicking it. How do I fix it?". That should have the solution you need.

Yea, I tried that earlier but still wouldn't work. I have all the requirements such as a higher .NET framework than, 4.6.2, Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64) and Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 (x64). This is extremely weird as I used to run LSPDFR earlier this year with no problems with multiple scripts. This issue just occurred yesterday as I reinstalled GTA 5 along with LSPDFR. Do you think there is another software causing this issue? It shouldn't be the antivirus. I've seen tutorials on YouTube from 2 months ago reverting the version of their game from 3028 to 2944. Will this fix the issue?

It can be. Keep in mind it is important to try every step listed for that in the FAQ as those are all known solutions for the issue.

Those will only work if you haven't updated yet. And furthermore, most places won't provide support for outdated versions of GTA V/LSPDFR/RPH.

I meant to say that I have added the GTA 5 directory to my excluded files in my antivirus just as the FAQ says. Again, really weird as this would work earlier this year. Should I wait for the next LSPDFR update? I have all the requirements and have done everything it says such as disabling GeForce Overlay and PC enhancing software. Watching recent YouTube LSPDFR installation tutorials shows them going through the configurator and pressing "Show license" and being presented with a RAGEPluginHook disclaimer, however when I went through this it wouldn't appear with any disclaimer and the checkmark appeared right away. Is there any other way to fix this?

 

Thank you for the replies and help so far btw.

Have you tried to run RPH.exe as administrator? By right-clicking on it and selecting "run as administrator."

If it worked earlier, could that be Windows updates, or driver updates?

I've just updated my drivers along with a Windows 11 update then restarted my PC. Still nothing.

This is driving me crazy. I have done everything the FAQ says about the issue yet it still wont open. It appears in my task manager when I double click for 2 seconds than it vanishes.

Do you have any ENBs installed? 

No. All I've done is install GTA 5, download and LSPDFR manual and drag the files into the root GTA 5 directory. Then, double click on "RAGEPluginHook.exe" and nothing appears, I mean like the "RAGE" logo doesn't appear and nothing happens. As I've said, I have ticked off all the requirements for RPH and added the GTA 5 root directory along with RAGEPluginHook.exe to my excluded files and folders in Norton as well as turned off the Auto-Protect and Smart Firewall features (were already turned off). Looking at an older post on the forum I saw that somebody had fixed this issue by uninstalling and removing Riva Tuner. I don't have any PC-Enhancing software like that or like MCI Afterburner which is leaving me clueless.
