Problem solved by trying to launch ragemp with a working vpn. Apperantly it blocks some IPs, interesting stuff.

Yeah I tried everything that's an executable in that folder for good measure. Same outcome.

I just download the setup from the website. Install it and when I try to run it it just doesn't show up. I see the launcher icon on the bar for a split second and it goes away. No windows appear, no errors appear, nothing happens. Here's the things I've tried. Other than this I've completely disabled my antivirus (which is windows defender, nothing else) using regedit and gpedit.msc. Real time protection is off, everything is off including firewall. Added the updater.exe and ragemp_v.exe as exceptions on both the firewall and windows defender. I tried opening the updater.exe without any other programs running in the background. No steam or discord overlays involved. I only have one small SSD totaling to an amount of 220GBs of free space so I don't have any different drives to install on. I also checked ragemp forums for a solution. https://rage.mp/forums/topic/1816-client-troubleshooting-tips-fixes/ The only problem that fits mine was this Which I already tried. I tried each and every thing on this list. I have a legit copy bought from Steam. I used to play on this server. Back then I was using windows 8.1 instead of 10. Didn't have any troubles, didn't even have to deactivate anything. I don't want to downgrade or reformat my whole laptop because I have valuable files that I need such as homework and stuff. Also verified the integrity of GTAV files on steam. I hope someone can point me out on something that I might've missed.
