# Error #9: FiveM Not Found - Open FiveM Before TZX

## Solution:

1. Close FiveM if it is running before launching TZX.
2. Launch TZX first, then open FiveM to avoid process conflicts.
3. Check background processes:
   * Open Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc).
   * End any FiveM-related processes.
4. Restart your computer to close active processes and prevent conflicts.
