Use caution when installing mods and always make sure your downloading mods from a safe website. Some mods will overwrite important game files in order to change the game in the desired way.

Is it safe to install mods in GTA 5?
Are GTA 5 mods safe to install? – Generally, single-player Grand Theft Auto 5 mods on PC are safe to install, as long as you can confirm that the mod files you have downloaded are safe by scanning them with reputable antivirus software. You can read Rockstar’s stance on PC Single-Player Mods on its official support website, where the studio says it “believes in reasonable fan creativity”. 
Meanwhile, in this newswire from 2015, Rockstar also said “you should not worry about being banned or being relegated to the cheater pool just for using single player PC mods.” However, multiplayer mods for Grand Theft Auto Online are strictly not allowed.
- Even just booting up Grand Theft Auto Online with single-player mods installed is a bad idea and could result in your account being banned.
- If you want to use single-player mods, it might be worth disconnecting your internet to play the game offline so that you won’t connect to the online servers.
- In the same newswire above, Rockstar noted that the studio’s primary focus “is on protecting GTA Online against modifications that could give players an unfair advantage, disrupt gameplay, or cause griefing”.
It also added that because mods are unauthorised, they “may be broken by technical updates, cause instability, or affect your game in other unforeseen ways.” It’s worth stressing that there is always some level of risk involved with installing third-party mods, and you will be operating in a grey area, so proceed with caution.

How do I go back to vanilla GTA V?
How can I restore GTA V to how it was before I modded it? There’s really no way to fix it now unless you reinstall the game, but in the future, when installing mods to GTA V, follow these steps:
Open OpenIV and install the ASI Loader and such under ‘tools > ASI Manager’. Make sure you install all 3 items by clicking “install” next to each one When you go to edit any RPF or important file, or you go to replace files that were included with the clean game, right click on the item you are going to edit/replace and click “add to mods folder”. This will put that file in the mods folder of GTA V, which will be loaded by OpenIV when you start the game. So basically when it launches the game, instead of getting car models from: Grand Theft Auto V/./././vehcles.rpf, it would get them from Grand Theft Auto V/mods/./././vehicles.rpf. When you want to return to the clean GTA V, just go back into openIV, go back to ‘tools > ASI Manager’ and click uninstall for all 3. Also make sure to delete any external ASI loader like ScriptHookV or ScriptHookDotNet which will crash your game before entering online.
If you didn’t edit any stock files (Ex, you just added files in the scripts folder and places like that), then deleting the added files would work to restore, but it sounds like you edited some stock GTA V files, so you would have to reinstall. Being a modder myself, the reinstalling gets tiring, but sometimes it has to be done! : How can I restore GTA V to how it was before I modded it?

Last edited by Heartwork ; 9 May, 2015 @ 4:40am your online character and savedata should be fine, i reinstalled the game and both of those where still there ^^ yeah? do you know if it saves on the cloud or something? the single player doesnt get saved in the cloud, so keep a backup of those just to be sure. Your single player stuff will be erased. Your online stuff won’t. It depends, some games do not delete the folder in documents, others will. If you’re worried about it, before nuking it, make a copy of the save file. Tater 1 Jan, 2016 @ 8:00pm well screw me I just loaded Wolf and it’s 40GB so that is how much at min you need fyi. Everything is saved to the social club cloud. I have deleted all my files to reinstall GTA V on a new HDD and everything is the same. Nothing will be erased. If you uninstall the game and delete it’s files because a mod has screwed it over, when you install it again will you still have your save files? If not then screw me 😭🔫 Luxia 28 Apr, 2019 @ 2:12pm If you uninstall the game and delete it’s files because a mod has screwed it over, when you install it again will you still have your save files? If not then screw me 😭🔫 Yes. The saves are in a different directory. Showing 1 – 12 of 12 comments
