Yellow "You have an account alert"
Went to open steam just now and first it didnt boot up normally. It had me logged out and I was about to sign back in when it all of a sudden just logged in on its own. Then when it loaded up it had a yellow box with "You have an account alert" in it. When I mouse over the box it acts like I can click it, but when I do nothing happens. Halp please

I have the same thing, and if minimize the client I see an open window is behind the client that only contains gray color in it. Wonderful.

I didnt even realize another window was popping up. I went and looked and saw the same thing. Closed it, clicked again, then saw its a thing for the new Subscriber Agreement.

It's about the new update to the SSA.

If you click on it and can't see the window, it's most likely in a window that opened in the background. You just need to alt-tab to it, or minimize whatever you have in front of it to see it.

I've looked at the new agreement through the email links a few times already, and the yellow message is still at the top. I'm not going to worry about it being there. I can ignore broken stuff like the message alert not changing until the cows come home.

I just got one now 9.26.2025, what is this all about. I click it and it doesn't link to anything.

Sorry, I figured it out, its just an update to the subscriber agreement. I wish the link just worked the first time, but seems to be lagging.

It was definitely weird having that pop up while playing a game.

(just a blank gray square)

I also thought I did something wrong. Turns out it's just to accept the updated subscriber agreement.

What is going on at Valve that has made Steam so damn buggy recently? The last update seems to have broken nearly everything for me in various ways.
I thought i got hacked or something..
