I'm trying to get RDR2 to work on my new laptop with Windows 11. When I click launch, it takes around 30 seconds for a window to appear. It's a small black window that constantly closes and then the Rockstar launcher quits before resuming play. I've reached out to Rockstar support, but they almost damaged my laptop during a clean boot. Anyone have any solutions?

Make sure to try a clean boot, turning off and closing any non-standard applications—things that show FPS, temperatures, or usage. Generally, anything not included with standard Windows should be disabled.

I would confirm that your firewall isn't obstructing any high-performance applications such as social club services.

It's hard to believe what happened. Yesterday night I tried to install RDR2 to fix it for today. After resetting my computer from factory settings following a support problem, I opened launch and saw a big black screen with writing and the Rockstar logo. I adjusted the settings and ran a benchmark – everything was running at 4k ultra with an average of 62fps. Thanks for the assistance, but it worked on its own.

Alright, the update time is now. I arrived home around 30 minutes ago and launched RDR2. The button for story mode on the title screen was grayed out and not clickable. After closing the app, I restarted it but it crashed to a small black screen. I've attempted a clean boot and disabled both antivirus and firewall, yet it still fails to start. I'm at my wit's end now.

Other titles also function properly. Are you starting through Steam or directly from Rockstar? RDR2 performs well on Linux, so you can experiment with that option if needed.
