Stop delete bumping this, please. I just typed out a reply and then it was deleted.

Don't try to launch Steam games with those programs. Use the play button in your Steam library. If you mean you want Afterburner to launch with Windows, then add that to your startup menu.

I know what the programs are for. But your OP literally says just that......

"Games Wont open With MSIFterburner/RivaTuner" which I found strange, because I did not think you could open games with those programs. If I misunderstood you, excuse me please.

Its fine they wont open when the program is launched
I would hit the play button in the libaray and it startsup and then closes and the game stops running

Go to "help" in the top of the client. Then "system information". Copy and paste all that here, please.

Then, do this please......

Take screenshots of all of the programs you have installed on your computer. Control panel then programs/programs and features. (Windows 7,8,8.1) or "apps" (Windows 10 click "Start" (Windows icon on bottom left))

Click Windows Start and type in msconfig and run that resulting process. Go to the services tab and check the box on bottom "Hide all Microsoft services". Take screenshots of all that is left.

Then go to the startup tab on top of that same window(Task Manager in W10). Take screenshots of all that there also.

Post all the links to the above screenshots here, using a file hosting site such as imgur.com

Then you have the app setup all wrong.

I have never seen a case where Afterburner actually caused issues with Steam, but just to be complete here with the information, it has been on the list for a long time.........

https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=9828-SFLZ-9289

but as I said, I have never seen a case where it was seen to be the actual issue.

Then go back to the basics; uninstall Afterburner and RivaTuner fully and then reboot.
Check those folders again afterwards to ensure no left over loose files.
Then ensure you have the most recent version, and install it again and go from there.

These GPU apps should never cause an issue with a Game Client; the issue sometimes is settings, like in RivaTuner; some games simply do not like it. Cause Overlay via these kinds of apps are done in RAM as a ScriptHook.

Yea, OP, ignore my request above for your computer information for now. Sorry about that. I have to agree wtih the good Bad_Motha. Follow that suggestion.

Once you set them up again, could you screenshot and share the tabs in MSI Afterburner settings. As well as within RivaTuner.

You can screenshot capture the active window one at a time using ALT+PrintScreen

My suspicion is that RivaTuner needs to be updated to version 7.0.0 because older versions seem to conflict with either Steam's current build or Rockstar's launcher for GTA V - I had issues launching GTA V with the older version of RivaTuner that installs with the version 4.3.0 of MSI Afterburner. Try uninstalling the current version of RivaTuner, restart your system and install version 7.0.0 of the application; this fixed the launch issue that I was having with GTA V.

Do you by any chance have these applications set to monitor your FPS along with having Steam set to do that also ?

Steam in the top left, then settings, then "In-Game".

It is normally suggested that you have only one application set to monitor hardware and FPS, for example. Maybe that could be it. Just an idea.
