Steam Market trading block?

Dear,

I've been trying to put my old backgrounds and csgo weapon skins on the market, but I get a trade block when I try to do so.
Is there a way to uplift this or do I really need to wait til March for a few minor trades?? What if the prices drop and I will not be able to sell anymore once they are listed? I can understand it is for protection as I've read but I have not touched this stuff in +/- 6months.

How does this work exactly? I cannot find a solution myself, some tips or how-to would be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Do you think reinstalling and/or adding the steam ports is a valuable option?

You seem to be missing some of the questions I have asked so far.

Why are you using a browser and not the Steam client ? The Steam client and Google Chrome count as two totally different devices.

Have you tried using the Steam client, and then in safe mode with networking also ?

Instead of a browser ?

You can not remove or reduce any restriction.

Here is the full list of them...

So I will not be able to use the Market like I did last year because of one of these reasons?

Then I should be able to trade again in March correct?

What are the restrictions you have?

Followed all steps from the link and uninstalled browser and all information stored within, yet no progress.

But you did answer my question, I think I can continue on from here.
Thank you Hotsauce.

Scratch that, I'm still completely lost as it does not seem to have worked multiple times now.

that's just a generic error that always appears... I get the same error, but I can use market just fine. (atleast that error has always showed up when i visited that page)

I am able to confirm them from my authenticator loggedin phone and grant them permission. Yet still they are all being blocked.

Edit: I've tried to perform another trade and now it gave me a notification that I've logged in with a new browser and access will be alowed on the 24th of Feb.

Guess I'll have to simply wait, thanks for all replies guys.

Somehow every trade I want to make is still being blocked because of my cookies.. This is getting really frustrating, I've never had this issue before :'(

Clear out your browser cookies and cache, and restart Steam.

The embedded link in this text from the page you were linked above is in this text.........

Invalid Cookie

In some cases, the Steam Community Market is unable to read your browser's cookie. In most cases, logging out of your Steam account and logging back in will resolve this. If this doesn't fix the issue then you may be running a program or browser add-on that is interfering with Steam's cookie (click here to learn more about this issue). In rare cases you may have to try another browser or delete the Steam cookie from your browser; however, this will likely result in a new device restriction (see the Newly Authorized Device section above).

which goes to this support page about other programs that may cause this issue........

Something must still be affecting the cookies. Don't focus on the fact you never had this before. Just troubleshoot the problem step by step.

Do you have CCleaner ?

I'm not really the kind of person to have a x amount of programs running when my pc is active.
MSI afterburner to control the fanspeed for my gpu and AMD radeon video settings.

Alright step by step.

Yes I have the free version, I'm not familiar with it yet.

You said yes, so I guess you mean that you do have CCleaner.

Go into the settings for CCleaner. Make sure the monitoring mode section of that program has all the monitoring totally disabled. By default, CCleaner runs on boot of your system, and by default, it is set to monitor your PC.

This is what usually causes issues with Steam from what we have seen.

Disable all monitoring of your PC by CCleaner. Then restart your computer. Or, totally uninstall CCleaner for now, and reboot the PC.
