Step 4: Under the Compatibility mode, select ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’ and choose your OS from the drop-down list. Double-click to make sure it launches the game first. It is usually named ‘game-name.exe’ or close. It should be in the primary game folder but could be in one of the sub-folders too. Step 3: You need to find the executable file that launches the game. Step 2: Go to Local Files and click on Browse. Can’t view the game in the library? Skip this step. Step 1: Open Steam > Library and right-click on the game that gives you trouble, and select Properties. This is for running older games that are no longer compatible with the system you are running Steam on. Try a couple of locations before you move on to the next method. That will give you better download speeds. I suggest you choose a location that’s closer to where you live. You can choose a new download location from the Download Region drop-down menu. Step 1: Open the Steam client again and go to Settings > Downloads tab. Changing the server location can help improve download speeds or fix downloading errors. One that’s closest to you to provide optimal speeds.
Steam has download servers all over the world and will automatically choose one based on your IP address.
You won’t have to sign back into Steam client either, as the option is built right inside the client. There is no need to reboot your computer at this point. Click on it and confirm in the pop-up that follows. Step 2: Under the Downloads tab, you will find the Clear Download Cache button. Step 1: Open the Steam client and select Settings under Steam. No, I am talking about Steam client cache, and there is a way to clear it right from inside the app. I am not talking about your Windows or macOS computer cache. You will be asked to restart Steam in a pop-up. Select Go Offline option from the Steam menu and wait a few moments for settings to take place. If you haven’t, try using it and then disable it after a couple of seconds. These are common solutions that can fix such downloading errors as the one you are facing.Ĭheck if you have enabled the setting to use Steam offline by mistake. Also, you can reboot the computer to inspect if something changes. Since this error is about downloading games or updates, you can double-check if your internet connection works fine.
