- If the error matches one of the types below, it's caused by the FiveM escrow system

General Solutions
If you can't start or use a script, try these in order:
- Update to minimum server artifacts version 4752 or higher
- Don't use FileZilla — use WinSCP instead
- Use the correct license key generated by the same account where you downloaded the script
- Upload the
.zipfile to your server and extract it there — do not transfer files individually
If Nothing Fixes the Errors
If none of the solutions on these pages resolve your issue:
- Verify you've tried every solution listed on the relevant error page
- Try a completely fresh install of the script
- Check if your server has been compromised — scripts that break after a few restarts often indicate a virus modifying files
- Contact support on Discord with details about what you've tried
