Hey,

So, my Steam is crashing since yesterday all the time without any report/message, whatever. Steam shows me the typical download sign in the icon and as soon as I point on it, it just close. This also happens ingame, then TF2 freezes and i have to close it.

I dont really tried anything yet and before I reinstall everthing I wanted to ask if anyone has the same problem or a solution?

Thanks!

I can’t even launch steam atm

The same happened to me yesterday in an official and it just keeps on crashing today.

I blame Gabe.

Regedt32 in RUN

HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Valve > Source > delete tf folder

Try it out, might help

1. There are no “folders” in the registry.
2. What does this do? Do you even know?
3. The reported problem is steam crashing – why “tf”? How is it even relevant?

i call them folders for some reason
it stores all your tf2 settings
It helped my friend once with his crashing, so i just suggest this, deleting tf registry won’t do any harm, it will just reset configs back to default, i don’t know how THIS helped my friend tho

Quoted from Blooddrunk

I tried it but it doesn’t work for me :/ But thanks anyways!

Didn’t find any fix, yet.

Any fps configs? if yes, copy paste them on Pastebin and put a link here.

then copy paste to Pastebin your config.cfg

I will check them and see if i can find anything

asking for tf2 config when steam is crashing on startup

nais

well i don’t know, that’s just in case, who knows what might be the reason? (im trying to help)

i would just re-install Windows then, if nothing helped

Edit#5: “This also happens ingame, then TF2 freezes and i have to close it.” trying to solve this at least
