First Solution from Reddit

FROM REDDIT

Go to your /Documents/Rockstar Games/Red Dead Redemption 2/Settings folder, if you don't have one (and you probably don't) just go ahead and make it.

Inside the Settings folder, create a file called system.xml, and open it in Notepad.

Go here:

2 . SCROLL DOWN TO

<videoCardDescription>NVIDIA NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER</videoCardDescription>

3. EDIT THAT LINE TO MATCH YOUR GPU: LIKE THIS

<videoCardDescription>NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060</videoCardDescription>

4. REPLACE THAT

<API>kSettingAPI_Vulkan</API>

AND CHANGE TO

<API>kSettingAPI_DX12</API>

Then save to system.xml

Launch RDR2


This worked for me when I had the exact same issue just last week, so hope it helps you!"

See if it can help , I was stuck with the bug from last year's October until recently.

Perfect solution

[1963bus]

fail.

[Lancenig]

Did that and now I can launch but I'm getting 1 fps
I'll mess around for another 30 mins and then it's just a refund.
2023...I got no time for this ♥♥♥♥

Also make sure you have absolutely NO afterburner, msi, XOC graphics card software running in the background... this was my problem all along... stupid.
