Can't sign into google/youtube account on steam overlay.

[Akula-Class]

Google has introduced this new nonsense which prevents users from signing into google accounts via the overlay browser as it is "not verified" and is a "less secure app". There is an option in your google account to allow sign in through less secure apps but even with that enabled, sign in is still prevented via the steam browser. Anyone having this problem too/can help?

Some of you are level 0. I'm not sure if, as lvl 0, your biggest concern should be linking accounts between Youtube and Steam.

Steam profiles are a cosmetic thing, what a stupid thing to say.

I still can't log in. Did you find solution for that or just logged in without any problem?

Just to clarify for everyone; Make sure you do this on the browser version of Steam and NOT the actual Steam client, it won't work otherwise.

I don't know if this is still an issue but I managed to find a solution

1. Go into your steam profile

2. Scroll down to the right side of your screen where it says "Videos"

3. Click on the option that says "Add videos from Youtube"

4. Sign into your Youtube account through it

5. Your google account should then be linked to your steam account through youtube

Hope this helps

Could someone post a screen with problem, I really don't know what you mean I logged normally. So I can't help you without knowing your problem.

Stom, most people here are referring to opening the Steam Overlay by hitting Shift + Tab while in game. Then using the web browser to open up Gmail or Youtube and trying to log in. Google has recently implemented a policy that stops "unverified" web browsers, such as the Steam Web browser apparently, from letting Google users log in the Steam overlay web browser. So when most people are trying to explain what's going on, and why they still can't log in, they are referring to this. I also am having this problem, and if anyone finds a fix please respond to this thread.

I have a problem with that again since yesterday. I can't add a second youtube account to steam browser.

Having this problem now, linking a YouTube account to allow signing in through the in-game browser worked a couple months ago after getting a new computer and still allows me to sign in but trying now with a different youtube/google account just won't work

[Dami]

I'm having this issue too. Copying cookies to steam browser and linking an YouTube account doesn't help. If someone finds solution pls write here :(

[air purifier]

I had my YouTube account linked before via Steam. It's disconnected so I tried again. No such luck now. Google does not even let me enter my password through the Steam browser, so none of the steam support links here work anyhow. Just gonna add this issue to the pile.

yeah still an issue...

Hey!

I wanted to upload a video for the communitymissions and could not login as well, so I found this discussion here.
Came to a very quick workaround, which works perfectly for me:

- Copy the URL of the page where Steam wants you to login to Google
- Paste it in Microsoft Edge
- Login with your Google Account

Afterwards I needed to login to my Steam in Edge again, but could then just select my Google Account when I clicked on "Link my YouTube". Now I was able to select my YouTube Videos in Steam and upload them.

I hope this works for you as well.

By the way, now that Google rejected my login via Steam, I can not login to my YouTube anylonger via Opera, tho I used it for years and Google also claims that Opera is a trusted browser. I restartet it, dis- and enabled Java-Scripts, but with no success. As this should not be the case, I contacted the Google Support, and I suggest you all to do the same, as they'll put more efford in cases, that have been reported more often.

Cheers.
