Csgo demo viewer problem (FIXED)

[KroKey]

When I start the beta viewer csgo 2013 it says: Failed to verify signed files for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, content validation is required. Any way to fix this?

Edit: Found a fix! Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and run csgo.exe an an administrator

Have a great day!

no issue here last time i tried it was about a 3weeks ago and it worked fine, the reason you may have the issue is cause the viewer is completely out dated so not all files downloaded correctly try to verfy game cache im not going to say cause everyone who plays steam should know how to do this

I tried that and it keeps saying: "Failed to verify signed files for Counter Strike: Global offensive, content validation required" then it comes up with an updating CSGO box.

I wait for it to update it again and launch the game but then it repeats the same message as above.

I found the fix! You have to run csgo.exe as an administrator found in

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive

I tried the demo viewer version again and launching it using the csgo.exe worked fine.
