Last Updated: September 1, 2026

Question: How do I resolve the following alert when trying to launch or play my Rockstar Games titles using the Steam launcher?

  • Switch your Rockstar Games Account You are trying to launch [game name] from an account on Steam that is linked to another Rockstar Games account.

Answer: This alert can appear if your Steam account links to a Rockstar Games account other than the one you are currently signed in to or if either account’s credentials have changed.

If both the Rockstar Games and Steam accounts shown in the alert are correct and you cannot sign in to either account, or if using the Switch Account button in the alert message does not resolve the issue, submit a support request at the link below:
