I've tried reinstalling it 3 times, my drivers are all up to date, I've tried pretty much everything I know and it still runs as background process and when I try to end it, it says access denied.

    If the problem is actually due to C++...

    GTA5 uses C++ 2008 version. There should be an installer in your GTA V*Redistributables\VCRed* sub folder.

    Hi, I’m Nicole, I’ll be happy to help you out today.

    May I know first where you downloaded GTA V? Steam or Epic games?

    Also, kindly share the specification of your system if this is a desktop or the exact model and brand if this is a laptop.

    Will wait for your response.

    Thank you.

    Okay, what platform did you use to purchase the game?

    You can check this thread for the Steam version of the game.

    Here is a thread for the Epic Games version.

    Let me know the results afterward.

    Thank you.
