ERROR
Something went wrong while attempting to sign you in. Please try again later. Error Code: e84

And i tryed to ligin from browser but i get the same error, thanks god that im login into my secondary browser..
Can someone help me ?

The way I fixed it is by resetting the password.
Next time you log in, it will send you a verification code in your email.

Same problem.
Using last steam beta app
Another bad steam update.

So, what i did was: (I am using the steam desktop app and I'm not opt in for beta steam branch)
1. Reinstall steam (for this one i downloaded the app from the official steam page and installed it again)
2. Restarted PC
3. Change password
4. First I logged in the browser(because I was curious if it would work), then i logged in the desktop app (i was logged on in both, the browser and steam desktop app)
If this doesn't work,
when you try to log in in lower right displays an error message. I suggest to copy then search online for solution... i'm sorry if i wasn't able to help but the error i got was "Error Code: e84".

I reset the password and it still not working

[Pscht]

Are you on the client beta? There has been an update a couple of hours ago.

[simeon9828 ツ☆]

Yes I'm from the beta client. I fixed the problem with changing my password to new one and changed it again. But the problem now it that the community market is banned from use for 1 week..

Sync your system clock before you start Steam.
That apparently fixes it.

This is peculiar, because the Steam Service component is supposed to start up before the main Steam Client starts and it should force your system clock to synchronize - so that time-window sensitive cryptographic algorithms work properly.

Apparently with the new login experience that no longer works.

There is slowly compounding circumstantial evidence that is pointing towards the new login experience in fact being little more than a hack ductaped on top of the existing unaltered original client - being attached as part of the bootstrap process which is supposed to install updates and verify file integrity, rather than being a proper part of the client. This would potentially place it 'too soon' - i.e. before the Steam Service had a chance to synchronize the clock.


This whole situation (including some people not even being able to see the new login prompt and attempt to login at all, instead black-screening due to problems with the embedded Chromium webview) does not paint a pretty picture for the sustainability of this new login 'solution.' Or for the competence of whatever team of developers Valve placed in charge of managing our account security, for that matter.

Makes me wonder if Valve's brass is going to deign to give us a proper response on the matter or not.

This works for me.....

Create a new shortcut from steam.exe. Open the properties and add this:
-noreactlogin
Your link must look something like:

“C:\…\Steam.exe” -noreactlogin

After that the OLD Login - Screen comes up and the login works perfect..

All the other solutions doesn't work for me

The problem is Steam Guard, disable it and you should be able to fix the issue.
