“Could not create a sign in token” error when logging into the Rockstar Games Launcher
Last Updated: May 2, 2024
Question: Whenever I attempt to log into the Rockstar Games Launcher, I receive the following error:
We could not create a sign in token. Please try again later. If the error persists, please visit the Rockstar Support website.
How can I resolve this issue?
Answer: In most cases, sign in tokens cannot be generated due to a conflict between the Rockstar Games Launcher and your antivirus software. On Windows 10 and 11, you can add the Rockstar Games Launcher as an exception in Windows Defender with the following steps:
Open the Windows start menu and select the Settings gear
Select Update & Security
Select Windows Security
Select Virus & threat protection
Select Manage settings, and then under Exclusions, select Add or remove exclusions
Select Add an exclusion, and then select the folder where the Rockstar Games Launcher is installed
Default location: C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Launcher
If you are not using Windows Defender, refer to your program documentation on how you can add programs or folders as an exception for your antivirus and/or firewall.
