stop buying from shady key-sellers and also stop cheating on your main so you won't have to re-buy again.

You can have used cd key errors for many different reasons. Some being connection issues, some simply need to restart steam. Some need to run things as admin. Sometimes date/time is out of sync. Issues with onedrive, and my docs / rockstar games also happen (rename my docs / rockstar games to -old to test). Then toss in a side of 'other' issues.... there are plenty.

When you buy the game on steam - you get a cd key... you didn't get a used one. This also gave you the 'leave a review' ability which.... says how you were able to leave a review *cough*... but whatever. Rebuying.. the game on steam - is going to keep giving you the same cd key. They don't know if you 'already used' this key on a 3rd party account, refunded, and rebuy for another, to keep using on new 3rd party accounts. If your steam was already linked to a social club account, it could/should have automatically applied that key to that social club account - and that is the one you'll need to use. Rdr2.. maxpayne3, Lanoire, R* games/etc if previously purchased may have prompted this link.

Find the problem, and fix it.
/goodluck /afk things to do

edit - If the problem is on your end, or somewhere between you and R* - there is potential it may still not work. Regardless, if you can't figure it out - you can also contact R* support and see if they will help. You should have the emails/proof of purchase, and all that to get... 'something' from them. Many people have had this issue - and got it fixed.

And of course it still won't work - as far as steam is concerned at the moment - you do not have a mouse icon by your name = you don't own it - at time of this update.

edit - hours later, still no mouse icon so... /shrug


edit - the files mentioned to delete below are also completely removed with my comment of renaming my docs / rockstar games to -old unless onedrive is involved (or your my docs isn't in a default location but I digress -.-)

And R*'s 'help' with some of the fixes -

You can try delete file "cloudsavedata.dat".
Documets/Rockstar Games/GTA V/Profiles/FDBEAFA2/, find and delete cloudsavedata.dat.
If it dont work - delete cloudsavedata.dat, pc_settings.bin and cfg.dat

Why are you telling us?? That's serious accusation, that you should make the people at Steam, who sold it to you, well aware. What exactly did they have to say about it???

[mikethys]

Toxic much? JFC get a grip on yourself and your wild accusations. Unless you got proof OP cheats or cheated, you don't go slinging wild accusations around like that. This community is toxic enough as it is. You only make it worse by perpetuating it. Don't be an ass if you have no reason to be an ass. You had no reason to be an ass. Stop being an ass.
