Can't create a good enough password??
I'm trying to make an account to use specifically for streaming, but it won't accept any password AT ALL?? How am I gonna make an account if it won't accept anything?

EDIT: It worked suddenly. Not sure what the issue was, but it's good now.

Don't make it too long.

Are you trying to use a password too long? Keep it short and simple, something YOU can remember, with letters, numbers, and if they allow it some form of other symbol. You don't need an extra-extra-long term, which is somethign I've seen people around here demanding they do for absolutely no good reason, as "long" doesn't mean "safe".

I've tried short, long, simple, even used a generator to make it COMPLETELY randomized. Nothing is working.

60 characters is enough. I think 64 is the limit.

Where exactly are you trying to make this account?

Is your computer not allowing Steam to run properly? Make sure that your firewall or virus scanner is allowing Steam to put cookies in use, and that it is not being 'live scanned' preventing steam from interacting while you're online.

I've tried it in browser and in steam itself.
Edit: I even downloaded firefox to try it there lol

Steam is a browser. Have you exited steam completely and restarted your computer between any of these attempts?

Then I've tried steam, chrome, and firefox. I have also restarted my computer and completely exited steam.

Check your firewall / virus scanner and make sure that steam is completely whitelisted. Do you use a phone that can access steam's system? I don't know whether you can create accounts using a mobile device, myself.
Spot the difference between the one that worked, and those which didnt.
