GTA V - Stuck at launching screen (problem fixed)

[ColmHartin]

I've not played GTAV in a many many months, but as I log into the game to launch it, it is forever stuck trying to load boot the game. I looked up online and found this issue was rather common. Finding a solution to fix it was not great either.
People recommended minimise the game loading screen, go into your task manager, details, scroll down to find GTAV.exe, right click on it, priority - set it to high. This never worked!

After some experiences with launching other games on Steam, I realised this is a common problem with Steam (I hope they can fix this).


The real solution I have found and has proven to work with all games, is go into your Windows Explorer, click into where you may have installed the game, it may be in your Steam folder or in Programs, Programs x86 or Program Files (if you're using a different operating system like Linux, you may know where to go from here), Rockstar Games, Grand Theft Auto V, double click on GTAVLauncher, the game will launch like it should do.

This way works for other games that may have trouble launching from the Steam Library. I hope Steam can fix this. With regards from me. :)
