GTA V Unbound Keys then Crashes

rypb16 · May 22, 2017

Hello,

Recently I had to reinstall this game. I installed the games using a disc copy that I purchased from Bestbuy. FYI: Have proof of purchase, so it was not a stolen game.

The installation went smoothly as far as I can tell. As soon as the game started it said my keys were unbound, so I corrected them. After that I proceeded to start the game in story mode, and the game crashed. I tried this several times, Same thing happened.

I deleted the files in the local folder as well as my documents, Still crashed.
Updated video card, ran as administrator. Problem persists.

Not sure what the issue was, I did not have this issue when I originally bought the game and installed it.
Nothing seems to fix it.

Please let me know what can resolve this issue.

I had this same issue which I was unable to resolve. I went out of the way and purchased GTA 5 on Steam for 29$ and never had ever any issues like this again.

Did it install the updater along with the game? If not, you should probably go to Rockstar's site and see if they have it available for download. If that still doesn't work, I'd put in a ticket with them.

When your game loads, somewhere on the bottom left/right it should say a version number write it down on the forum

It does the same update every time I launch rockstar/game.

100father :

I dont know if this is right.

Build 1032 Online 1.39

??

1.39 is the latest version number; not sure about the build number, I can't find that info anywhere. Huh. Have you contacted Rockstar Support?

rypb16 · Jul 26, 2017

Yeah I tried contacting them, Still have not solved the issue

I'd say reinstall windows. Than try.

Slow Pri :

I am not doing that now. Thats ridiculous.

rypb16 · Aug 7, 2017

Carnaxus :

It Updates everytime I try playing it.

Carnaxus · Aug 7, 2017

Reinstalling Windows is a valid potential solution, don't brush it off as ridiculous. That said, I agree that we're not at that stage yet. You said you deleted the files in the local folder; did you do that manually or through Steam? If you have the Steam version, but did it manually, there could be some files elsewhere in the Steam folders that didn't get deleted and are causing the issue to persist.

I guess I brushed it off because that's a lot to do and Its not a gauruntee it would actually fix the issue.
I do not have it through stream. I have a retail discs.

Carnaxus · Aug 8, 2017

And a CD key, correct? You should see if you can register that key in Steam; it'll make fixing this kind of error a breeze in the future.

For now, open up your Control Panel (in Win10, right-click on the Start button to find it) and go to "Programs and Features." Find GTA V in the list and uninstall it properly, then reinstall it and see if the issue persists.

P.S. I'm not sure why you picked my previous post as the solution.

Should I reinstall it and see if I can register the key in steam? Because just reinstalling it probably wont work, I have done that twice since this problem started.

Carnaxus · Aug 9, 2017

Did you uninstall it the way I said at least one of those two times?

Adding the key into Steam will allow you to install it directly through Steam, if it'll accept the key.
