I've been having lots of computer problems lately. :frown: I was sitting at my computer, enjoying the internet when I decided to pop open Steam and play some Call of Duty, so I went to the icon and double clicked it, opening a window that said Steam was updating: [IMG]http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/gamerkiwi/1.png[/IMG] ^Steam doing its thing. So I thought, cool. An update. Valve cares about Steam. It gets up to here: [IMG]http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/gamerkiwi/2.png[/IMG] ^Steam update at 27% still doing its thing. But then... [IMG]http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/gamerkiwi/3.png[/IMG] :bang: This happens every time I start up Steam, always stopping at 27%. Any help guys? [editline]05:28PM[/editline] Oh, I forgot, on my other computer, Steam works fine. And this has been happening for a day.
Try computer restart? Tends to fix steam issues for me.
Didn't work. I also tried reinstalling and that didn't work either.
Delete ClientRegistry.blob then try it.
Still doing it.
Do you have a router? Maybe your firewall is blocking it.
What happens when you hit cancel?
[QUOTE=JDK721v2;15143301]Do you have a router? Maybe your firewall is blocking it.[/QUOTE] I've been getting on Steam recently, just that yesterday it stopped working. I haven't changed anything in my router before it stopped working so that's not it. [editline]07:55PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Unreliable;15143317]What happens when you hit cancel?[/QUOTE] It cancels.
It doesn't launch? Thats akward, whenever I hit cancel on my steam, it opens it up without the update... Also, the firewall I doubt would be doing this, contacting steam and downloading up to 27% and then stopping wouldn't be done by the firewall, the firewall would just stop it completely. I dunno...
Bump. It's been happening to me for years now, have never been able to fix it.
Has also been happening to me - the only way I can get it to work is some ritual by copying over a clientregistry.blob from a computer that has Steam working to the broken Steam's folder.
