Steam client crashing on startup

[FruliFrulla]

I'm having this weird problem that when I try ty launch steam it tries to verify STEAM'S installation but it crashes right after. Checked the crash dump from steam folder and there is 12 (unknown thread starts)

Most of threads that I have read have not worked so I'm trying here now

Surprised this isn't fixed yet.

Good to know it's not just me having this issue. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling steam twice-no luck. I reset my oc to default settings-no luck. I'm currently checking system memory to see if that has anything to do with this issue. This situation sucks big time.

hello

had you tryed to delete the cache ? (appdata/local/steam )
if the answer is yes then you should contact the support and send them a dmp , so they can understand where is the problem.

hello

While browsing the store, forum, etc , steam is building a cache of the files on %appdata%/local/steam. Sometimes it can help to delete it while steam is not running and if it does not work, the best is to contact the support and send them a dmp ( dump located at %appdata/local/crashdumps - hope it's the same for w10/w11 ) file that was generated during the crash, so the team can studie it and see what is the problem.

SERIOUSLY!?!?!?!?!?!?!
I'VE SPENT LIKE
2 YEARS
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY STEAM WAS CRASHING, AND NOT ONLY THAT, GETTING CAUGHT IN A CRASH LOOP SO THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT WAS A FULL RESTART
2 YEARS OF SEARCHING FOR INTERNET SOLUTIONS, TRYING AND FAILING DIFFERENT METHODS
AND YOU'RE TELLING ME
IT'S MY KEYBOARD
THANK YOU BUT UGH
