[mf DARK]

is that a restore with data on that spot already or no previous install folder at all.

if you dont get it say so. ?

i just reinstalled steam again so no data still it isnt working

Do note, the data from some game backup could be so old that steam have change it all so no point in restore, i cant say its that, but same is seen before in shogun2 disk install 20 gb useless data from DVD , then game update all and install 25gb so that was just 20gb down garbage can and waste of time.

i did not say you have this here. i can only hope it is.

do exit stream start steam again and check install content folder do not have broken part install or entry in there with them you try to restore. this is local file folder check, i hope you have a clue what i try to explan.

disk write error
also besure you have steam.exe on allow exception rule , even game own .exe , its seen before antivirus app even need game.exe added to allowed.

and same with qurrantie folder dont have content in there from game , even that will popup a write disk error.

ps.
even a pre-alllocation has been seen to pop a write disk error now from another user. but to my knowledge that not in a restore backup file more on a install from steam server.

keep in mindi dont use steam backup, then i have a backup server.
