Can't seem to get any help. Just got on today and wham! Steam crashes when i try to load it. Done tons of things to try to fix it except full uninstall because I would rather just format my entire hard drive that has 3 years of precious files of mine than redownload half life 2 files and others. (yeah i get the "if u formated u'd lose hl2" thats how much i don't want to download it again) Here is full description of error
AppName: steam.exe Appver: 1.0.0.0 ModName:steamui.dll
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 0008a37a
Things I've done to try to fix:
Deleted and let steam reinstall these files: steamui.dl,
clientregistry.blob, steam.dll, steamui_36.mst, steamui_10.mst,
steam.log and I some files like steamexe_100282_2004 and
other files that I think have resulted from crashing (some info
being stored cuz of bad load or something like that)
I've kept some of these files and deleted some in an infinite
combination to see if anything worked.
I tried the unwise.exe file (never understood why it was called
unwise, some dev joke that is now common name for uninstall)
I selected the repair option and said "No to all" when it asked if
I wanted to replace new files with older ones. And every time
I've done that, I've gotten a crash or an error that states
something to do with unexpected size. I'd be more informative
on what it said if i could reproduce it, but its crashed from then
on.
I remember this problem was more pandemic a few months ago
and the solution was for most people to just delete
clientregistry.blob but I had to also delete other files which now
seem not to exist anymore or have been replaced/renamed.
Much obliged
