Many players have been extremely frustrated with the lackluster Rockstar Launcher that is needed to play Red Dead Redemption 2, but there’s a very easy fix that will allow you to play the game without using the launcher at all.
All you need to do is rename the “rdr2.exe” file to “gtav.exe,” and the game will launch fine without using the launcher. This is probably not intended to work, but it does, so change the file name, and you won’t have to bother with the subpar Rockstar Launcher anymore and can enjoy playing Red Dead Redemption 2 without all the issues with the launcher.
