Attach, do not patch
A patched client rewrites the install. This overlay talks to a live process and leaves the folder alone. That is why a game restart drops the menu.
Keep the overlay outside the Grand Theft Auto V directory so Social Club file verification stays boring. Do not mix this ZIP with a pirated executable and then ask why attach failed. A patched client rewrites game files; this overlay talks to a live process and leaves the folder alone.
That is also why a game restart drops the menu. Nothing is written into GTA5.exe, so closing the session ends the attach. Product definition continues on about. Install order is the guide. If a download is a modified game folder rather than a ZIP beside your user profile, you left this channel — see fake downloads.
