globe definition = a spherical or rounded object.

You turned on your PC and your Steam games have become spherical or rounded objects, and you can't open them.

Can you explain what you mean by "your Steam games have become spherical or rounded objects"? Because if you want to launch a game, you usually double click an executable or click a game on Steam and hit play.

I'm guessing that English is pretty far from your first language.

Post in your native language.


If your computer updated recently that may be the problem.

Wild guess: The shortcuts OP has for Steam games on his desktop have turned into .urls.

Just for the record of this thread.

If a game was installed to the local machine it appears for every Steam Account you log in with. However if a given account does not own the game(s) in question then instead of the green "Play"-button there is a blue "Purchase"-button with a little globe on it as the icon instead of the play or install icon. Like this...

EDIT:
I can only guess that this was OPs issue because otherwise his description is all over the place

But it still looked like on my image right?
If so then it was some verification or authentication issue for your current Steam Client session. I had something similar...ish a few weeks ago when my provider had a lot of issues due to Corona 'n stuff
