So. I'm going and logging in and playing Tf2 or Gmod or somthing whtever. I close it becaus I have to go do something. 5 minutes later I come back. I try to relaunch the game and I get an error message saying that it is being used in nother process. I have to restart steam in order to play agian. Please help me out! EDIT!: Guys I hve tried all that. But I dont wanna keep restarting steam because my computer Is REALLY slow. Any other ideas?

I get this message on startup sometimes, it's usually when steam's farting around updating in the background. I'd just wait or restart steam :)

Open task manager, go to Processes, end process hl2.exe
Then relaunch

This is the easiest solution

Perhaps you should install "Spellcheck."

* EDIT: Never mind, that won't help.
