local files have already been verified and it checks out :/ i've tried uninstalling, reinstalling, restarting steam, allowing access thru firewall

try installing to a different location perhaps? escalate back through steam?

Here's a tip that may work.

1. Click Steam logo in top right of dashboard.
2. Click Settings
3. Click Downloads
4. Scroll down until you see Download Cache it will say under it "Clearing the download cache might resolve issues downloading or starting apps"

GL!

Edit: 1. Click Steam logo in top left of dashboard. I forgot my right and left today! X.X

Are you sure it isn't installing/clearing space on HD etc? I've had it get stuck for a couple of minutes on 99 while it was doing computer stuff. Eventually it clears by itself.

Also, double check your available space on your disk.

tried the download cache, and moving it do a different location. moved steam to the same drive as well. lots of space on both so that's not the issue but we'll see fingers crossed. and it wasn't installing/clearing it would say installing and then go to paused. i would resume download minimum 5 times and it kept taking itself off queue.

"if you are having trouble with download/unpacking getting stuck at 99% forever on steam, go into download settings > steam library folders > repair folder then redownload the game."

From Reddit.

Additional things to do, but I would say that the vast majority of them won't solve it. I don't believe in the whole "you need to reinstall BIOS and Windows for it to work".

A 100% of the times, I've solved these kinds of issues without any major changes to the system.

Sorry to hear that. You could also try this.

1. Changing steam download region to somewhere else that's close.
2. Disconnecting the PC from the internet.
3. Restarting Steam. May lose the download.
4. Restarting PC. You may also lose the download so do this as a last resort.
