Your save games and video clips should also be safe but if you are worried about them, make a backup of those too.

It won't affect any mods or scripts folder, nor will it affect any asi mods, scripthook or openiv files in your main GTAV folder.

Verifying the game will put all the files in your main GTAV folder back to their default state and should install all patches to bring the game up to date. Run the game once with that shortcut but once you have done that, remember to not use it again unless you need to verify your files again, otherwise it will verify your files every time you run the game. "X:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto V\PlayGTAV.exe" -verify
What you need to do, is add -verify onto the end of that, to end up with something that looks like this: "X:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto V\PlayGTAV.exe" That text should say something like this (Note: the drive letter will probably be different on your PC, I used X: as an example): There should be some text already highlighted in the Target box. Now we have the shortcut, we need to change one of the values, so right-click the shortcut and choose Properties. If the shortcut is already on your desktop, then you simply need to right-click and drag the shortcut, and choose Copy here when you release the mouse-button. If the shortcut is in your Start Menu, right-click and drag that shortcut to your desktop, choosing Create shortcuts here and that will give you a new shortcut on your desktop. Somewhere in your Start Menu, or even on your desktop already, will be a shortcut to the GTAV game. Fortunately, I have some info already made for that situation: If you have the Retail/DVD version, it's not difficult, just a bit more fiddly as you need to change the properties of your game shortcut.
If you have the Steam version, then you can verify the game files through the Steam Client. At this point I would advise making a copy of your complete GTAV folder as a backup, just in case something goes wrong. I would suggest letting the game verify your game files. Yours should be showing 1.0.231.0|1.0.678.1|1.1.7.8|1.0.505.2|FFP so that makes me think you have a corrupt Social Club Launcher. Compare these two numbers, your launcher is at the top, mine is at the bottom. Well the first thing I notice is that image is not showing a valid version number on the launcher, there is a section missing.
