Why do I keep getting the error message “GTA V no longer works“ appears when I’m in Los Santos or when I’m in a lobby for the next job? A few other players will probably ask themselves this question as well, as we have been experiencing this error more frequently in recent times and after some research, we are not the only ones with this problem. A few days ago the time had finally come and GTA 5 from Rockstar Games was also released for the PC. As expected, the game is very popular and that’s why there was a big rush on the servers when it was released, which sometimes made the download times a little longer. But by now everyone should have downloaded all the data and patches. For a few hours now, we have been receiving messages like “GTA V no longer works,” which often happened in the lobby. So what should you do and why is it?
Possible solutions for the GTA V stopped working problem
In our article about what to do if GTA 5 doesn’t start, we also read this message frequently from other players in the comments. The error manifested itself in the fact that we were able to install and start everything without any problems, but after a mission in the lobby of GTA Online, the error message “GTA V no longer works” would randomly appear and later the Social Club would start with the question whether we want to start the game in safe mode.
After searching for a long time and not finding a real solution, we simply downloaded and installed the new NVIDIA drivers that were released shortly before the release of Grand Theft Auto 5. Even if we didn’t really believe in it, the update of the graphics card drivers was apparently worth it, because since then we no longer see the error message in GTA Online and are no longer thrown out of the lobby.
Do you also have the problem with the message “GTA V has stopped working” and do you know any other solutions? If yes, then feel free to let us know via the comments section of this page.
