If after installing Windows several times it still doesn't work, it is clear that it is the game itself. The only thing I can think of that you can do is uninstall GTA 5, and delete the entire GTA 5 folder from your hard/solid/m2 drive... and then install GTA 5 again, this way you make sure it's not left trace of any mod or file that is not 100% of the vanilla game. Try if this works (if you haven't tried it already) and if it doesn't, I can only think of 2 more possible solutions: If you have a CPU with integrated graphics, open the Windows device manager, look in Display adapters for the graphics card that corresponds to the processor, right click and click disable (only if you have an integrated graphics card and also a dedicated one). The same thing happened to me a while ago that happened to you with GTA 5, only in my case it was with Red Dead Redemption 2, the game quit as soon as I opened it and when I disabled the processor graphics it stopped happening, I had to always play with it disabled, although at the same time I stopped having to deactivate it because in some update it was fixed. Contact official RockstarGames support. It is clear that it is a matter of the game, if you do not have any mod and it continues to fail, you have the right to receive official support from RockstarGames, surely they can help you better than me since it is their game and they know how it works 100% inside, So I would recommend that you contact them through their official support page (I didn't provide a link because I don't know if you can put links in this forum) Try the 2 things that I have told you, hopefully it will work for you, and if not, you should contact RockstarGames support, yes, you must be a pain and not give up until they give you a solution, but they will give it to you with complete security since they are obliged to do so. I would like to have a magical power or something that allows me to provide 100% functional and correct solutions in these cases, but unfortunately I don't have it, I only have computer technical knowledge and a lot of patience. Everything else depends on whether I can think of possible causes or solutions to the problem, and to be honest, I have run out of ideas about what it could be or how it could be solved, if by chance something occurs to me I will let you know, but as I say, at this point, I can only recommend that you ask for official support from RockstarGames. Anyway, let me know anything, I look forward to the day you tell me that you have managed to solve it.

I think it is a good idea, because one of the possible causes could be because you have installed a modified version of Windows, these versions have their advantages and disadvantages. Normally, modified versions of Windows are lighter and work better on computers with older hardware because they remove system functions and services that are not needed for normal use such as working with word processors and watching videos. In the case of playing, some of these services or functions may be necessary, and the lack of these may be causing the problem. Installing a regular version of Windows, instead of a modified one, may solve the problem and if it's not that, then there's something wrong with the game. Good luck fixing the problem, any progress, let me know.

Does this only happen to you with GTA 5 or has it also happened to you with other games? If you haven't tried it, try playing other games and tell me if the same thing happens to you or only GTA 5 does it to you. If it happens to you in more games, it's a matter of your computer, if it only happens to you in GTA 5, it's a matter of GTA 5 itself, and the possible solutions may change.

Yes, I don't know exactly what it was, but leaving the vanilla game has been solved

I hope that with that, you can get it to work, good luck 🙂

Taking that into account, it is possible that it is a problem with your computer, having downgraded from Windows 11 to Windows 10, many things will have been deconfigured and surely several files that make Windows work are corrupted, preventing you from things like updating and possibly You end up discovering more problems over time. It would no longer be enough to reinstall GTA 5 from 0, I think more than that, you need to do a clean installation of Windows. Even if you managed to fix GTA 5, taking into account that Windows doesn't even let you update and is starting to give you errors, you will have more problems with more games, more programs and many things about Windows itself that will arise over time, I think something has failed when you downgraded from Windows 11 to Windows 10, which has broken files from both programs or games and the system itself. I recommend formatting your computer, installing Windows (the version you want, preferably Windows 10 or Windows 11) clean without keeping files, installing everything you use on a daily basis again, configuring the basic things that you have to configure and trying install GTA 5 again, that way, you will save yourself problems with Windows and with GTA 5 itself. As for the mods folder that you have renamed to _mods, it only disables modified files such as graphic mods, cars and that kind of thing, but it does not disable external mods that are in the scripts folder or directly in the root folder of the game Keep this in mind, since it does not have to be a mod that is in the mods folder, it can be any other mod that is in the root folder or in the scripts folder. Although seeing that you get an error when trying to update Windows, I'm afraid that it is quite likely that the problem comes from something broken in Windows and not your GTA 5 itself. Remember to always keep your computer updated, both system updates and those corresponding to the most important drivers such as graphics and processor. I don't think there are many solutions other than formatting the computer and reinstalling everything clean again. I wish you luck, anything you need I will help you.

This information is useful, it could indicate several things: Outdated drivers: It is possible that when you download from Windows 11 to Windows 10, your drivers have been misconfigured, implying that you will be downgraded to a previous version that you had before updating to Windows 11. I recommend checking if all the drivers are updated, especially the GPU and CPU Problems with integrated graphics: Some Intel processors have integrated graphics, sometimes it can cause problems (it happened to me with RDR2), you try to open the game and it detects the integrated graphics, since it cannot work with it, it tends to close. I don't know if this is your case, but if you have an Intel with integrated graphics, try deactivating the processor's graphics with the device manager, disabling it. Windows update pending: Sometimes when Windows has a pending update, the games start to go wrong, I don't think this is the case, but check if there is a pending Windows update, if there is, update it, if not, then we discard this. To be honest, I can't think of much else, maybe it could also be a gameconfig file thing, since the default gameconfig file doesn't support large amounts of mod vehicles, very high quality textures and that kind of thing, try downloading a file of modified gameconfig, maybe that will help you if that is the problem. As a last recommendation, if none of this works, you could reinstall the game from 0, doing a clean installation, deleting all the files, mods and so on, if you leave it completely vanilla, it should work perfectly and then you can reinstall the things you had little by little to see if it was one of them. Good luck fixing it, let me know if you have any progress, and if I can think of any other possible solution, I'll let you know.

Here where I live it's also late, when you try, comment on it, I'll be waiting to help you.

Did you have any mod installed? What kind of mod did you have? LSPDFR? Cars? Mod Menus? If this is the case, it is important that you know that every time they update the game, the mods usually have many problems, even causing the game to not start correctly or quit as soon as you enter it. 1 - Be sure to check for updates to all the mods you have, including files like RagePluginHook, ScripthookV, ScriptHookV Dont Net, and similar. 2 - If you had LSPDFR they will have released several recent patches due to the latest GTA 5 updates, so you should install it again too. 3 - It is possible that there are other mods that are not only from LSPDFR, check those mods as well. 4 - If you have mod menus like native trainer (you probably do) or Simpletrainer, these have also received updates recently, update them. Try this, with a little luck it will fix it. If not, what I recommend the most is to clean install the game. I know, it can be annoying to have to reinstall all the mods from the beginning, it requires time and patience, but I think that considering that you haven't played for a long time and many things have changed since then, it will be better for you and will avoid headaches.

In that case everything makes sense. When downgrading from Windows 11 to Windows 10, many files are modified and changed, mainly system files, but apart from system files, program files, games, and other types of things can be modified and changed, making some of these programs or games become corrupted, have missing files, or have corrupted files that cause them to not work properly. It is quite likely that your GTA 5 is missing files or some files are corrupt, there are several possible solutions: 1 - Verify the game files, the way to do it depends on whether you have the game on steam, rockstar laucher, epic... (It can work, but it is not always effective) 2 - Reinstall GTA 5 without removing the mod files and others that you may have. (It can work, but it could also be caused by some mod that is corrupted and would not work for you) 3 - Reinstall GTA 5 clean, this means uninstalling it, deleting all the contents of the game folder (Including any mods you have, etc...) and installing again. (100% should work, it would be very strange if it didn't) If none of this works for you, we will continue looking for solutions.

I am sorry to hear that. Seeing what you say, you exit the game a few seconds after opening it. You also say that this has started to happen to you after installing "windows language spech pack", perhaps it is an incompatibility problem with that Windows service, you could try to uninstall it and Try again to see if it continues to happen to you, if it continues to happen even after uninstalling Windows Language Spech Pack, we can rule out that this is the reason and continue looking at possible causes and solutions.

Unfortunately I have tried to restore the .ysc files and now when I approach los santos customs the game crashes. I guess I'll reinstall the game and it will be fixed, even if it means I have to reinstall LSPDFR, graphics mod and everything else again. Thank you very much anyway for the help provided, I have tried to avoid reinstalling the game by all possible means but I see that it is the only feasible solution at the point I am at. Thank you very much for the help to all of you who have tried to help me.

Do you have any kind of graphics mod or sound mod or anything that involved using the OpenIV program? The same thing happens to me when they update GTA 5, you just have to open the OpenIV program as administrator so that it can locate where the game is again, I think that may be the case in your case too.

My problem is that if I replace the .rpf directly, having modified files such as the graphic mod, police cars addon and that kind of thing, apart from the gameconfig or dlclist, all those things will also be replaced, something that I try to avoid. That's why I try so hard to know exactly which file or files are wrong, so I can replace just those and not break the rest of the game. What do you think the name of the file or files that the LS customs control is called? Is there a way to replace everything but without having the modifications replaced?

Yes, I have update.rpf and update2.rpf, what do you think it could be?
