Re-Enable CD Key Pop-up?
Here is a weird request: How do I re-enable the CD key pop-up at game launch?

Every time the game launches, the CD key pops up to be copied. I accidentally clicked "Never Show Again", and I would like to return it to before with the CD key popping up again.

The reason for this is because I can usually close the CD key pop-up to update all my mods in Geforce Now, where without this pop-up the mods do not download properly.

Thank you

I found this thread as well, but the difference is that the mentioned thread ultimately only need to find the CD key regardless of the pop-up.
In my case, I need the CD key pop-up to automatically show when I click "Play" so that it works properly with GFN.
Thank you.
doesnt look like they make it easy to re-enable it seams.

It was bought on Steam.

Hmm, doesn't seem to be easily possible to re-enable it. But you can manually pull up that popup. Might be helpful?
1. Open the game
2. Press shift+tab to open the steam overlay
3. Click "CD Key" in the top right area

The issue I'm dealing with is that I don't actually need the CD key but the fact that the automated pop-up interrupts game launch to allow for the mods to download. Thank you for your help.
best thing to do then is contact steam support.
as we do not know enough of the steam client to help.

I would wager a re-installation of steam would do it. But that isn't exactly an ideal scenario just to restore a popup.

How would you contact support about this?

I have this problem for another game that I bought on steam. I need that product key to register it somewhere outside of steam and now I no longer have the option to "Manage" "CD Keys" and the pop-up in the game is gone too.

I looked through their support pages about "Steam-issued third party keys" and help with product keys but it either redirects me back to the main support page or send me to a page with no option to "Contact Support".

Steam has its own forum area, you can try making a post thru them
