How to play GTA IV on official servers in 2024! (no key required)
Tekijältä Heleus
I made the tool to bypass any GWFL (necessary overlay to play official online) license check, which will be especially useful for people who bought the game and can't get their previous cd-key for downgrade version. You will have opportunity to play Online even if you haven't bought the game and made refund, all you need is your personal Microsoft account with disabled 2fa auth (since GWFL doesn't support it).

Preparation
1) Make sure that you have a Microsoft account with two-factor authentication turned off in the form of mail:password, and also log in to (Xbox dot com) and create a new nickname for yourself if you have not already done so.
2) You can downgrade your Steam copy (idk how) or you can use GTA IV.zip from Download section. The archive with the program for bypassing the license check will also contain GFWL client of the latest version, which must be installed. Please remember that all other versions of GFWL must be uninstalled at the time of launch!
Also, some antiviruses swear at the tool because it changes the PCID line in the registry, believe me, there is nothing terrible about it, this always happens when manipulating the registry
Make it working!
1.Before launching the game through LaunchGTAIV.exe, launch GWFL Online Fixer.exe from the archive. (You can always read the FAQ what to do)2.Press Get CD-Key. It will automatically copy one of the CD-Key for you.
3.Press Fix Key Error and after that launch the game. Now you can log in without any problems.
4.If you don't want to play multiplayer - it's enough for you to stop on this step, if you want online - go to step 5.
5. Close the game and press New PCID - it will automatically change your personal ID, which make think Microsoft servers that you are completely different PC and therefore you will be ready to play with other players without being kicked for having the same PCID.
That's all! If you will encounter the error saying that there were so many cd-key activation - just ALT+F4 and press Fix Key error on my tool, log in into the game, close it and press New PCID. Do this every time you are ready to play, it happens rarely, so you won't be bothered with 1 minute action.

I spent about 3 days investigating and testing this tool, it's going to work with any other GFWL game servers, so you can use it further. Thanks to TGLTClutch from ModBB for mentioning the registry data long time ago, thanks to him I was able to understand what exactly I need to know to make it working!

@sleepy Well, it looks like you activated your product key more than 15 times on different PC (or changed HWID), which mean you cannot activate it anymore normally. Every product key has restriction like that, cuz GFWL doesn't work like Steam, it has connection between 1 keys = 15 HWID allowed, when the times are out - your key isn't good anymore

@Heleus thing is that i have a valid product key, but it just wont accept it and will say it is "expired" and forces you to enter another key.

@sleepy unfortunately there is none. I did the tool as an experiment of succesfull bypassing the license check, but I have no idea how to make the process automatic.

@NicolasMods Make sure ports 3074 and 88 are opened in router's settings, windows firewall temporarily disabled fully
through cmd (you can google how) and IP is static. All these condition parts should be advised for host. Unfortunately GFWL multiplayer pretty buggy, so it's okay if you can't connect on some internet connections sometimes
