First question: is this a legit copy? And are we talking about the classic version or the definitive edition?

 

If the answer is yes to both then try launching the game as an administrator

[RajatGames]

It's the classic version I tried to run as administrator it's not working and yes it is a legit copy

Try installing SilentPatch and Widescreen Fix. I had this weird issue (in GTA 3 at least) where the game refused to start because my monitor or GPU (idk) doesn't support the default 640x800 resolution.

Also make sure to have DirectX 9.0 installed. Heck, just download AiO runtimes, uncheck M$ Silverlight and Java and let it install all the runtimes that most of the apps require and you shouldn't have any problems in the future.

ok but can you give me the AiO runtime link to download? can you please give me the link?

 

[RajatGames]

i installed the AiO Runtimes and gta sa is still not working  is there any other solution to this problem? i also installed slient patch and widescreen fix but still not working

uh well, then idk. If it's the Steam version, try to rename exe from "gta-sa.exe" to "gta_sa.exe". I remember R* renamed it purposely ages ago so Windows Vista wouldn't "do stuff" 

Or just switch to Linux and use Steam Proton/Lutris

Check If There's A Process Created For The Game From Task Manager. If There Is One You Need To End It.

 

Try Restarting PC.

 

Try This Much And Update Here, If It Still Doesn't Work We'll Think Of Something

i tried to see whether something happens in task manager i saw that when i open gta sa, In the task manager its shows as "gta sa (32-bit)" and then it disappears after a second i tried your solutions but still it doesn't work
