You can limit your downloads in the Steam, settings, downloads menu. Top left of the client.

Please calm down. No one is going to take over Steam.

There is a bandwidth setting limit there also. Did you not see that ?

Have you considered that the problem might actually be on your end ?

Any conflicting programs running in the background ?

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

All device drivers for your hardware as supported by your OS fully up to date ?

Are you using a router for downloads ?

Got other devices in the network consuming bandwidth at the same time ?

If you continue with the attitude here, no one is going to try to help you.

I asked some basic questions and you refused to answer them. Please answer them next or I am done.

A monarchy is a King or Queen

I know you think you know everything at 16, but you don't, one of the things you clearly don't know is how a PC works. Try answering The Giving One's questions rather than assuming you know everything.

Love how condesending people are of people younger than them. I built this computer with my own hands. I know I don't know everything I love how people generalize that about anyone younger than themselves because they love being condesending and thinking they are the king of everything. Explain to me how I don't know how a pc works? If I am in task manager and I can clearly see and state that is says steam client bootstrapper is using 8.6 mbs whats the point of asking is it any other programs on your computer?

1) how do you know those processes are using up all your bandwidth

2) generally speaking if you are correct, then there's a patch that trying to get downloaded but is failing. Usually thats a firewall/anti-virus issue. Though you can try to re-download the entire game from scratch to stop the patch entirely

3) otherwise you may have the steam client open on a web page that is looping a video on a store page

Note that when people ask you legtitimate questions and YOU answer them in condescending ways YOU are the problem. not them. Peple are trying to help you then YOU come in with the condescending attitude, then YOU accuse others of that? That is a great way to NOT get help at all.

This^
Someone tries to help you(repeatedly) and you act like a brat. Why'd you come here if you just wanted to complain and not fix your issue?
