    steam client bootstraper wont uninstall

    Have you rebooted since uninstalling the Steam Client ?

    The bootstraper is just a term for the Steam Client. If you uninstalled Steam via Programs and Features

    the 'Bootstraper' should not be on your machine.

    Where are you seeing the Steam Bootstraper ? If it's a Resistry key or perhaps still listed in

    Task Manager > Startup tab (because of a Registry key) it won't cause any problems.

    - If Steam is uninstalled and no longer on the list in Programs and Features you can delete any folders

    that Steam may have left behind. Or to be safe, rename the folder and keep it for a while to verify it's

    safe to delete.

    - Also inquire at Steam support/forums.

    Why do I need to uninstall Steam to upgrade to Windows 10 Creator's Update?

    This is not the answer, as it still gives me an error. And we shouldn't have to go through this every time Microsoft says so.

    Yes, my system was otherwise updated, Steam as well, and Steam is not running. Even after restart (and built-in to the app refresh) its still asking me to uninstall it, and it is telling me I have to uninstall other applications such a Glyph. But Glyph is
    not listed in the uninstaller or under C:\Program Files (x86). This installation of Windows 10 was not an update to an older OS, it was a clean install of Anniversary.

    EDIT: Also tried the following.

    The same error remains after removal of the Glyph Client and a game called Trove. Its obviously something in the registry Windows is having a problem with and Microsoft is giving some real half-baked solutions to address this.

    Hi,

    There are a lot of possible reasons why your steam game is not opening. One of which is having a corrupted game file. To resolve this concern, we suggest that you follow the steps below:

    Step 1: Run the troubleshooter for Windows apps. This can help remove problems with an app from Windows Store. To do this, you may refer to the link below:

    Step 2: Reset the game from the Settings menu.

    • Click Start and click Settings.
    • Select System.
    • Select Apps and features.
    • Find the game and click Advanced options.
    • Click Reset. You need to restart your computer to let the changes take effect.

    Step 3: Try to uninstall and reinstall the game.

    If the issue persist, we highly recommend that you contact Steam support for additional troubleshooting steps.
