CS:GO Trusted Mode - NOT WORKING
Hello,

I am trying to launch the game and play a few CS:GO games as i always do.
Sadly due to the latest update i can't open the game in "Trusted Mode".


Beside Windows OS i have the following apps running:
- MSI Afterburner (i control my GPU temp with this software from MSI)
- RivaTuner - software that came with MSI Afterburner
- SteelSeries Engine 3 (i control my mouse/keyboard with this software from SteelSeries)
- Sonic Studio3 (i control my Headphones HyperX Cloud Alpha 2 mixer)

Even if i stop all these apps (to be honest if i need to stop these i will not play the game anymore - i will not risk for my hardware to overheat due to CS:GO) the game will not start in "Trusted Mode" - VALVE what are you doing?
Can you at least put a message that indicates what stops the "Trusted Mode" to load?

Thank you!

P.S. Downgrading to BETA mode is not a solution.

UPDATE - there was a dll left after uninstalling SonicStudio that was causing the launch. With all the mentioned software stopped/uninstalled the Trust mode works

Dont use MSI afterburner and rivaturner.
Both programs severely damage your FPS

And what is the solution than for the GPU - if i have Afterburner OFF the GPU will not use the coolers.
Is there a solution for this?
Is the only reason i use it.

if you have to worry about your computer over heating from csgo then you need a new computer lol that's pretty damn sad

I like to keep my PC as low as possible when it comes to temp :)
I think my PC is decent and can RUN CS:GO without any problem. My problem is with all these things that are not working now. Why all programs that are not hack's are marked as hacks ... They could have made a separation between them. And MSI Afterburner for sure is not interacting with CS:GO or injecting the game.

Actually it show how stupid you are in IT. CS GO render with like 400 fps which strain the PC to the ground. unlike other newer games which gets you like 70 fps. so all in all yes without custom fan curve your GPU will get to 80 or so playing cs go uncapped.

After testing all day i reached to the official conclusion that:

1. MSI Afterburner + Rivatunner (Software for controlling GPU OC and Temperatures)
2. SonicStudio (HyperX Cloud Alpha 2 headphones mixer control)
3. SteelSeries Engine 3 (Keyboard / Mouse control app )

All these software are stopping CS:GO to run on Trusted mode.
Until this will be fixed i will stop playing CS:GO.

If they are all stopped i can start the game and play on Trusted mode.

What does downgrading do exactly? Does it disable the trusted mode or..?
