GTA V won't start.

My GTA V would not start. I click on the game, it goes through the launcher loading screen, and after that, the game won't start; also, the cursor (the one with a hourglass next to it) keeps on blinking at a slow pace. To make it stop, I have to click on the game again, open Task Manager, and end the program. But it still does the same thing when I click on the game.

 

I tried repairing the game, verifying game files, and deleting all files in "mods" folder (because I have OpenIV).

 

Can anyone help?

Had a similar issue once, reinstalling is the easiest way to get it fixed but might be worth trying these:

 

  • Deleting a few of your random important game files and verifying the game so it redownloads them - could save having to reinstall the whole game
  • Going to Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA V\Settings.xml and setting them to the lowest/lower settings and see if it'll launch then
  • Going to your driver control panel, change the game settings there and try enabling/disabling vsync.

Think there's something on the gta 5 mods website you can get that searches specifically for mods in your folder and removes them, might be worth doing that and then verifying the files.

Problem fixed, realized it was Menyoo that was causing it, it's bugged out. It might be updated soon.
