So for the fourth time in the row now my steam is validating my TF2 files, nothing has changed in my TF2 yet it keeps on doing it every time I launch.
Is this a common bug and is there a way to fix it? Every time I let it finish it goes through it again.

use the search tool in the forums, there have been loads of topics about this in the last couple of months
i had this, i had to re-install tf2 to fix it. restoring tf2 from a back-up also works and is quicker :P
Make a backup of your config etc, then delete everything in the steamapps\yournamehere\team fortress 2\ folder
just manually validate and let it work till it sais done and lets u click the window
Here is a very simple way to fix, which I found through trial and error
1. Defrag until it is totally finished, do not stop until the finish text comes up (using in steam defrag)
2. If 1 doesn’t work (unlikely) delete everything in your steam folder bar steamapps and steam.exe (you wont lose your game dont worry)
3. Now defrag again
Enjoy TF2
