Just loaded up fiveM & it updated, I then check my GTA V directory & there is now a file in there called ‘steam_appid’ my version of GTA V isn’t the steam version so I can only assume it was added when fiveM updated, will this lead to me getting banned when I go on GTA Online?
No it will not.
Ok thanks for the info, just wondering what it was & why it was there, it looked odd so I removed it 
Edit: I loaded up FiveM again & it was there again, I removed it just to be certain, do I need to?
Again I have the non steam version hence why I was bothered
Do I need to delete it before going to GTA Online? I have the non steam version.
no you can leave it alone. you will not get banned for playing FiveM.
Ok thanks for the info 
just out of curiosity why does it now add it to the GTA V directory everytime FiveM is started up it did before?
