Before i explain i know there is probably so many people asking about this but i really dont seem to find the same issue, Thanks for understanding

[GTA V bought on steam with a white shark card on 27 may 2017]

 

So my problem is that GTA V (that i bought in steam + a white shark card) has an issue because it says that my activation code is already in use. How can that be? i didnt buy it used or anything ive tried to contact rockstar support 2 times now the first time was 18. oct and the second time was just recently, i think the issue maybe is because i bought the game for my old pc but i turned out i couldnt really run it because of specs so i just uninstalled it and thought to myself lets just until i get a better pc and so now when i have a pc that can run it there comes up this dumb message that im really frustrated about i hope you guys can help. And i REALLY dont want to buy it again so i want to try everything else

edit: (ive found out that my younger self applied for refund but didnt get a reply and my friends cant see gta v in my library but they can see how long i have played the game and when i last played it hope it helps)

 

Sincerely PJ

So you've already activated it on another PC. Was this on the same Steam account or a different one?

 

You'd be better off contacting Steam support than Rockstar support for this.

If it was the same account, you should have GTA V in your steam library, no need to re-activate the code.

ive found out that my younger self applied for refund but didnt get a reply and my friends cant see gta v in my library but they can see how long i have played the game and when i last played it (hope it helps)

If you activated it and didn't get a refund, it should be in you library. If it's not, contact Steam support or re-buy GTA V

No, the activation code is different for each purchase of the game, otherwise only one person on Steam would be able to own the game.
