I have installed the latest LSPDFR on a clean installation of the latest GTA V via Epic Games but when I try to start RPH, it opens, validates hook, validates system and immediately closes. If I start the game first and then start RPH then it doesn't even open at all causing normal GTA V to be loaded instead.

 

There is no RPH's log generated even with administrator mode and I've already added my GTA V folder to my Windows Defender's exclusion list.

That is not going to happen.

 

Also, I tried it on my laptop and it works there for some reason but doesn't on my desktop.

In order to fix the Validating System closure issue, please do the following:

Spoiler

Add your Grand Theft Auto V folder to Antivirus exceptions and your RagePluginHook.exe, too. Then allow it on your device if the error pops up in the right corner.

If that does not work, then try:
1. Disable Windows Defender.
2. Launch RPH. 
3. Once you have gotten past Validating System, re-enable Windows Defender.

@keanejustynPlease do not tell people to completely disable their anti-virus. That can lead to some pretty bad outcomes and is not needed to solve this problem.

Issue still persists after trying that.

Still closing after Verifying Integrity?

Yep.

Did you try both solutions provided above for that issue, cause those are the known fixes.

Yes, I have.

Launch normal GTA V and then once in story mode, launch RPH. See what happens.

Same thing.

UPDATE:
1. Does the normal game work?
2. What anti-virus do you use? Screenshot where you have an exclusion made for RPH/GTA Main Directory.
3. Did you block the "trojan" (the false positive) when you first installed manual LSPDFR?

1. Yes, normal game including non-RPH mods work fine. (RPH worked fine before GTA V Update. After update, it still works on my Laptop but not on my Desktop)

 

2. Microsoft Defender (Entire folder is excluded so all files/executables inside is included)

 

3. I never got any threat warning for RPH and I've confirmed by looking at Protection History.

As for response 2, did you add the RagePluginHook exe itself in the exceptions?

That is included in the exclusion automatically because I've excluded the entire folder.

 

Before you ask, yes, I've already tried excluding the RPH executable itself as well, the result is always the same.

Go to the GTA V Main Directory folder. Select it. Right click. Then go to Properties and Security and give yourself All Perms. Then re-install manual LSPDFR and try again.
