Corrupted files... every day!
game crashes and corrupted files uploaded to Steam... what could it be? It's been several days now that while I'm playing on Steam the games crash, I always have to check the files, Steam finds corrupted files and then tries to reinstall them but then, the files are still corrupted (with a message written in red).
I do not know what to do...

"My apple tastes bad. But I don't know what's wrong" is what you're pretty much saying. You could've easily browsed this online and find result. Two most possible faults are disk wear-and-tear and network. Ram could be faulty too, but generally that'd crash your computer entirely, so that is crossed out. You can run disk check tools that comes with your OS. If that doesn't solve it, you gotta replace your disk. Or, it could be your computer is hacked. First is more likely.

I would run both a harddrive / ssd and memory check.

Sounds like your hard drive is going bad. I just had to replace mine because crystal disk said the drive was in a caution status. I ran disk check and it found problems. I ran seagate seatools and it would fail at the short tests. So the hard drive was going bad.

Save anything valuable on the drives. Steam games are not valuable as they can be re-downloaded. But family or friend photos are very valuable. Then don't use the drive for anything valuable cause if the drive fully goes then you lost valuable data.

PROBLEM SOLVED... it was a bad installation of the latest nVidia drivers, despite having opted for the "clean install" option. I had to remove the same drivers using an external app (DDU) by going into windows 11 safe mode and then reinstalling the drivers again and like magic everything fell into place.
