FiveM is one of the most popular and common multiplayer modification frameworks for Grand Theft Auto V, giving freedom to players to create and join custom roleplay servers, racing servers and many more. When using FiveM, players must be connected to their Rockstar Games account as the framework relies on gta v’s original license verification. When you want to unlink your Rockstar account from FiveM. This could be because you want to switch to a different account, login issues and resolve a ban-related problem. Unlinking your rockstar account from FiveM requires some steps.
How to Unlink Rockstar Account from FiveM:
Unfortunately FiveM does not show a direct “unlink” button in its launcher. This process involves clearing cached data and resetting the connection.
1) Close FiveM and GTA V:
You make sure that FiveM and GTA V are not running in the background. This ensures that files are not locked while you make changes.
2) Delete FiveM Cache:
* Navigate to your FiveM application data folder.
C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Local\FiveM\FiveM Application Data.
* Locate the cache folder and delete it.
* Also look for the priv folder (when it exists), which stores account link data, and delete it.
3) Log Out from Rockstar Games Launcher:
* Open Rockstar Games Launcher.
* Log out of your current Social Club account.
* When needed, log in with the account you want to link.
4) Relaunch FiveM:
Once the cache is cleared and you’re logged into the correct Rockstar account, launch FiveM again. It will detect your GTA V license and then automatically link to the new Social Club account.
Important:
* You cannot have two Rockstar accounts linked simultaneously. FiveM always uses the one.
* If you are banned on FiveM, unlinking and switching accounts will not always bypass server specific bans, since many servers use identifiers like IP or hardware ID.
* Always makesure you legally own a copy of GTA V on the account you are switching to, otherwise FiveM may not launch properly.
Conclusion
Unlinking a Rockstar account from FiveM may look like complicated, but it’s mainly about clearing cached login data and reconnecting with the desired account. By following the above steps you can easily solve this issue.
