    I'm sick to death of you trying to make the Store a thing. It cannot do something as simple as download and install a game, I've paid good money for.

    0x80073CF9 - Everywhere on Google, fucking useless commands that don't make a lick of sense because none of you know what the fuck even happens in your own software. Steam can take an eon of two to download a game but you know, it eventually downloads and installs.

    The store? Garbage. I just want to play a racing game that I've paid for, the copy of Need for Speed Underground 2 that I paid a fiver for that is 15 years old at this point, installs and boots up fine on Windows 10, but the racing game that I paid 60 quid for in mid-2019, cannot even begin downloading.

    So for the love of all that is holy, just put it on Steam, hell I'll take fucking EGS at this point and that is saying something. Not that it matters because you only ever show up to flog the latest "No Uptime for Hustle as a Service" blog post for a beta.

    In the meantime, if any of you have any ideas on how to get this error resolved, besides nuking and reloading yet again because Windows has the stability of a burst dam, I'm all ears.

  2. Steam

    Hi Sam,

    There are several reasons why you are unable to play the game that you installed using the Steam Client. It is possible that the app is corrupted or the permission settings are not enabled on your PC. To resolve your concern, we suggest that you reset the
    app.

    This process can help restore corrupted game installation files. Here's how:

    • Press the Windows key on your keyboard, and then click the Settings icon.
    • Select System, and then select Apps & features.
    • Find the game, and then click on Advanced options.
    • Click Reset.
    • Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

    You may visit this
    link
    for the instructions on how to enable app permissions on your PC.

    Make sure that you are using an administrator account to launch the app. If you are still experiencing the same issue, remove the
    ClientRegistry.blob file by following the steps below:

    • Close the Steam Client and go to the Steam root folder or C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam.
    • Look for the ClientRegistry.blob file.
    • Make a copy of the file and change it to a different file name. (for example, copy.ClientRegistry.blog)
    • Delete the original file.
    • Launch the Steam Client and run your game again.

    If the issue persists, you may relocate the Steam Client by performing the steps below:

    • Close the Steam Client app and go to the Steam installation folder.
    • Browse for the installation files that you would like to move.
    • Delete all of the files inside that folder except the SteamApps & Userdata and Steam.exe.
    • You may cut and paste the whole Steam installation folder to a default storage location on your PC.
    • Launch the app again and make sure to log in using your account.

    After signing in, you'll need to change the default installation path for the games that you will install in the future. Here's how:

    • Launch the Steam Client and go to the Settings
      menu.Select Steam Library Folders from the
      Downloads tab.
    • You may create a new path by selecting Add Library Folder. All future installations will go directly to the newly created path.
    • Right-click on the newly created path and make sure that it is set to default.

    If you are still unable to play your games using the Steam Client, we recommend that you contact
    Steam Support directly for additional solutions in fixing the app and its components.

    Should you have any other queries, you can contact us anytime.

    Push to talk causes stutter in Steam games

    Posted this in several forums but seems that nobody else is having this issue. My last hope. *Smile

    I would be grateful if somebody else can confirm the same behaviour in regards to how Steam games access the microphone on Windows 10. The following is how Steam works for me:

    Unlike with other game platforms where the games use the mic, in Steam games it's the Steam Client Bootstrapper that uses the mic and not the games themselves. And unlike with the other platforms, where the games constantly use the mic until you close them, the Steam Client only uses the mic when pressing the Push to Talk button and then stops using it when releasing the button which I think is the cause of the stutter. I guess this is good for privacy but not at the expense of gameplay. The workaround is having any other application running that is constantly using the mic. This eliminates the stutter in game. Here's what I mean.


    If you look at the bottom right next to the Steam icon, the mic icon appears and disappears whenever I press and release the push to talk button. And on the left the Steam Client bootstrapper timestamp appearing and disappearing. (When I alt-tab out of the game, the steam client keeps using the mic because I was using a controller while the push to talk button was still pressed)



    For me this is happening with all the Steam games that I currently have installed that support push to talk. I read some other posts where people experience this voice chat stutter but only in a specific game not all of the Steam games. Some of them use a USB mic. I use a 3.5mm Modmic. I don't have this issue with non Steam games. I tried different Realtek drivers with and without Nahimic but I think this is a Steam vs Windows 10 issue.
