[Tutorial] Getting GTA V On Windows 7 SP1 In Late 2025 ( No RGL )

[alexthetechie1]

Using steam on windows 10/11 I downloaded GTA V Legacy Edition and copied everything in the following folder to my Windows 7 PC

C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Grand Theft Auto V

roughly 115GB-ish

Make sure these files arent on any kind of external storage device ( preferably copy them to the C: drive if possible ) 

 

Now to get the game to actually run without the launcher 

1. Download the modded GTA V files from here https://archive.org/download/grand-theft-auto-v-retail-pc_20220422/Updated Crack.rar

2. Overwrite the existing files with the modded ones

3. Install the modded social club client  ( works on windows 7 sp1 ) ( in link above )

4. Defualt language will be Russian for some reason, to change this open steam_api.ini scroll down to "language=russian" and change it to your desired language
