    Steam overlay fixed for 64 bit games in latest beta build of Steam


    Not sure if many of you noticed, but post Windows Insider build 14936, the Steam overlay would refuse to work with 64 bit games. Starting with the public beta build of Steam that is available today, that issue is resolved.

    You can opt in to Steam beta builds by going to Steam's settings>Account and clicking the "Change" button under the Beta Participation header. Select "Steam Beta Update" from the dropdown menu, hit OK and then hit the button to restart Steam.

    As with any beta builds, you may experience bugs. I haven't run into any showstoppers in the time I've been running Steam betas, but your mileage may vary.

    :)

    STEAM Screenshots

    I have a hard time believing that NO one at Microsoft knows what STEAM is.For the cheap seats...I CAN take screenshots in Diablo 3 which is the only other gaming outlet I use for those.I MEAN taking screenshots while playing games in the STEAM games platform
    developed by VALVE Inc.They use the Chrome browser for their game overlay where you take SCREENSHOTS while in your games.The F12 key is used to do this IN GAME and it was working perfectly in Windows 7 64 until I upgraded to 10.THAT is the ONLY problem that
    I have so far with Windows 10 regarding the STEAM platform.I hope that SOMEone will get the memo this time. Thank you
