In this video, I'm going to show you how
0:02
you can fix Steam games program not
0:05
opening up. So, if you have been trying
0:07
to open your Steam program app on your
0:10
computer, but it can't open, then try
0:12
one of these methods to be able to fix
0:15
this problem. If you find this video
0:16
helpful, I'll kindly request that you
0:18
support me by liking the video and also
0:20

0:23
So there are quite a number of steps you
0:24
can take and in the first method you
0:26
need to go ahead and access the program
0:29
files for steam. To do that just go to
0:32
this PC and then choose local drive C.
0:37
And from this you can see we have
0:39
program files. So we have two this and
0:41
this. So go ahead and choose this with
0:44
x86 or x64 or 32 on it. and then go
0:49
ahead and look for steam program. And as
0:52
you can see, mine is here. So if I go
0:54
ahead and open it, these are steam
0:56
program files that are available. Now
0:59
from this we want to go ahead and delete
1:02
this app cache. Now one of the reason
1:04
why your app can't open or this program
1:07
can't run is because of this file called
1:10
app cache. Now the reason why this is
1:12
vital is because this normally stores
1:14
the data or history for your app or
1:17
program to enhance user experience. But
1:20
the problem is when these files
1:21
accumulate sometimes they might cause
1:23
your app to malfunction or to fail
1:25
completely to run. So go ahead and just
1:28
delete this. It will not have any effect
1:30
on your program. And once you have
1:32
deleted it now go ahead and try opening
1:36
your app. And at this time now your
1:38
Steam app should launch or open without
1:40
any problem. Now if this doesn't work
1:43
then head to the second method. And for
1:45
the second method just head over to this
1:47
task bar here and then click on task
1:50
manager. Now from task manager go and
1:53
click on process. And from process
1:56
scroll down until you get to your stem
2:00
program. And as you can see my stem
2:02
program is here. So go ahead and right
2:05
click on it and then click on this
2:07
option called end task. So one of the
2:11
reason why your app or your program
2:13
might not be running is because your
2:15
steam program was running in the
2:17
background and therefore you need to go
2:19
ahead and end that task. And once you
2:21
are done now go back and try opening
2:24
again your Steam program and it will go
2:27
ahead and launch a fresh. At this point,
2:31
your Steam app should be able to launch
2:33
and start working properly without any
2:35
other problem. However, if this method
2:37
didn't solve your problem, then go ahead
2:40
and try the third method to solve any
2:43
issue with your app. For this, just go
2:45
to the shortcut of your program and you
2:47
can see here it is mine and then right
2:50
click on it and then choose this option
2:53
called properties. If you click on
2:55
properties, go ahead and choose this
2:57
option called compatibility and then go
3:00
ahead and select this option run this
3:03
program as an administrator.
3:07
Click on it and then apply and okay. Now
3:11
this will give you the ability to go
3:13
ahead and run the program as an admin.
3:17
But still, should you find any problem
3:19
with this, then you might want to go
3:21
ahead and restart your computer and see
3:23
if that solves your problem. But should
3:26
that not work or solve that problem,
3:29
then you might want to go ahead and
3:31
uninstall this program completely
3:33
through the control panel. And here's
3:35
the control panel. If you go to control
3:38
panel, choose the option called programs
3:40
and features. And here you will see all
3:43
the programs that are running or that
3:45
are installed on your computer. From
3:47
this look for steam and as you can see
3:50
my steam program is here. Go ahead and
3:54
right click on it and then choose
3:56
uninstall. By doing this your program
3:59
will be removed on your computer. Then
4:01
go ahead and download and install steam
4:04
program aresh from the official website
4:08
of steam. So try out any of these
4:11
methods that I've just given you and you
4:13
should be able to solve any issue with
4:16
your Steam games. If you have any other
4:19
question, kindly let me know in the
4:20

4:21
