- If the game only runs at 30FPS, check if the V-sync is set to half. If not, then download Debugview, open it, launch GTA 5, then minimize the game and look in Debugview for repeating looping codes. Kill these processes.- If you have an NVidia video card, try enabling SLI.
- If you have a GeForce video card, try disabling vertical sync in the game and the shader cache in the NVidia control panel.
- If you have a card Nvidia GTX 970, then the drop in frame rate can be removed simply by minimizing the game (Alt+Tab) and expanding it again.
High CPU usage
The processor can be offloaded different ways.- Option 1
Launch the game, minimize it (Alt+Tab), launch the task manager (Alt+Ctrl+Del) and close the active process Grand Theft Auto V Launcher.
Minuses this method is that the game, sooner or later, will suddenly crash. To prevent this from happening, you need to create a BAT file with the following content:
And run it. This way it will launch GTA 5, kill the gtavlauncher.exe process itself and give the GTAV.exe process high priority.
timeout 60
taskkill /F /IM gtavlauncher.exe
wmic process where name="GTAV.exe" CALL setpriority "high priority"
- Option #2
As mentioned above, in the task manager we insert for GTAV.exe highest priority.

Open the task manager, as mentioned above, and:
1. Close wmpnetwork.
2. Then we stop the NvStreamSvc service. To do this, launch the console (Run → cmd) and enter the command “ sc stop "NvStreamSvc"" And " sc config "NvStreamSvc" start=disabled».
3. Launch the game. In the task manager, set the lowest priority for the launcher and the highest for GTAV.exe.
- Option #4
Sometimes the game keeps crashing, even with a batch file, as shown above. Therefore, here we are not “killing” processes, but just correctly distributing priorities. To do this, create a bat file with the following content:
start steam://rungameid/271590Let's launch it and enjoy the high performance of GTA 5.
timeout 60
wmic process where name="GTA5.exe" CALL setpriority "high priority"
wmic process where name="gtavlauncher.exe" CALL setpriority "idle"
wmic process where name="subprocess.exe" CALL setpriority "idle"

GTA 5 is a multi-platform action game that was announced back in 2011. The release of the game was scheduled for 2013, but it was postponed, and the toy appeared on PC only in 2015. The developer is Rockstar North, but the publisher is Rockstar Games. It was the latter who stated that for them GTA 5 was the most ambitious project in the entire history of their existence.
The essence of the game remains the same. Three characters: two of them are professional robbers, the third is a car thief. The gamer plays the role of the arbiter of destinies. But, as in previous times, few people care about the backstory. Moreover, with such graphics, players simply enjoy the background.
In the fifth part, the game world has become so large that even a week is not enough for the player to study all the subtleties and details. Despite the plot, it's all the same main goal What remains is income, because all the resources that the hero will need will have to be purchased. And, of course, where you need a lot of cache, there are various cheat codes for creating additional resources.

Well, now let's move directly to the difficulties of GTA 5 Social Club (initialization error, activation error, etc.).
Difficulties
User reviews indicate that activation errors and other problems occur quite often in the GTA 5 Social Club online platform. This happens because the developers did not have time to fix bugs and game flaws. This process usually takes a long time, so you just have to wait until all the errors are corrected. In the meantime, we have to fix problems using traditional methods.
The launcher is not working correctly
A popular difficulty in the game GTA 5 is Social Club. In addition, it also happens that difficulties arise with updates and installations:
- “Social Club failed to load due to an incomplete installation...”
- “A newer version of Social Club is required. The updater may have failed..."
If you decide to deal with these problems, you will have to save the situation in several ways. First you need to close GTA 5, delete and download Social Club again. To avoid difficulties with reinstallation, check in the task manager for the presence of processes associated with our toy, such as GTA5.exe or GTAVLauncher.exe, etc. If none of them work or are found, then you can start reinstalling.
If you cannot eliminate the above errors, you need to:
- Clear Steam cache.
- Launch "GTA 5" through the administrator.
- To eliminate the error, you can also restart DirectX and Visual C++.
- We try to disable the antivirus and other security software and turn on the game.
- We check the path to the Social Club installation files.
Error 15
Another popular problem is error 15 Social Club GTA 5. You can “cure” it quickly and easily by updating the windows sdk. It can be found on the Internet. The game throws this error if some components are missing.
Error 1018
To stop the Social Club 1018 error in GTA 5 from tormenting you, you can simply reinstall the application or update to a new version. Or go to the GTA V folder and delete the settings.xml file there.
If you're tired of waiting
But the Social Club GTA 5 loading error usually leads to an endless process. To get rid of this problem, you need to create a My Documents folder on drive C. Right-click on “My Documents” on the same drive. Our goal is the “Properties” item. Here we go to the “Location” tab, in the line you now need to enter the address of the folder that you already have. Don't forget to click on "Apply" and turn on the game. This is how easy it is to deal with such a difficulty as the Social Club GTA 5 loading error.
Difficulties with activation
For the activation of GTA 5 Social Club to be successful, go to the Social Club. There you will have a choice: “Purchase” or “Use activation code.” Select the second option and enter the key. Next, you will be able to download the game.
If you want to activate the game after installing the game, you will still have to log into your account and authorize the game account. In your profile you need to indicate an age of 18 or older, otherwise you will be able to download the game, but you will not be allowed to launch it. Then, again, enter the key and enjoy the action.
If you encounter an activation error with GTA 5 Social Club, do not despair. Most often, this difficulty appears after a dialog box with the error pops up after finishing the game: “Activation required...”. To fix it, change the date on the PC and select April 18, 2015. After turning on the game, you must save and then return the date.
When GTA 5 Social Club activation does not occur due to an allegedly used code, this is a difficulty that can be dealt with. If you have already written to technical support, but did not receive a response, you will have to solve the problem yourself. This error occurs if you have previously downloaded pirated projects from Rockstar. In order for your activation code to work, you will first have to remove all pirated games and Social Club. After uninstallation, you need to clean out the registry:
- Start.
- Execute.
- Regedit.
- Press ctrl+F and enter “RockStar” and “Social Club”.
- We remove the found components.
Other errors
To prevent the Social Club installation error from appearing in GTA 5, be careful with the installation. Other errors also occur, either related to the Social Club app itself or other factors.
Another of the difficulties of GTA 5 Social Club: name error. This problem appears for those who have Cyrillic in their Windows account name. In this case, the game does not start at all. To fix this problem, select in start command line and enter “lusrmgr.msc”, then go to “Users” and in the “Rename” - “Properties” tab change the name.
If an error is detected with the server, go to the folder with the downloaded “GTA-5” and find the file x64(*).rpf.par, copy this document and delete it from the folder. Launch the launcher and continue the boot process.
When sharp it means that one of the DLL files has failed. To determine which of the many, you need to find the error.log document in the Steamapps folder and look at the problematic element there. Copy his name into notepad and close the folder. Now you need to install the Dll-Files Fixer software, after starting the program, go to the Install Dll Files tab and enter the name of the file that you saved in notepad. The software itself will find and install this document in the desired folder. The same steps will help if errors occur indicating a specific file, for example, “The “...dll” file is missing.”
If an error of any kind suddenly appears in the GTA 5 Social Club game, but you cannot solve it, most likely the reason was downloading a pirated version or using an unlicensed activation key from the Internet. To use the game with maximum functionality and without errors, you will still have to spend money and buy GTA 5 on Steam.
