Title: Steam Problem
Post by: Miley on March 03, 2012, 06:19:27 pm
So I have non-Steam games of course, and I add them to my games list on Steam.
I have the Amazon version of Warband, and starting like last week I think all of my non-Steam games disappeared from my games list. Since then it's happened like 2 more times. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I haven't heard of this, but have you checked the steam forums? And you should be able to just add them back

My non-steam shortcuts disappear too, quite often.

I think you'll have to get used to it..
And add them back each time they're gone.

They dissapeared last week for me too.

Never knew others had this problem, maybe it's steams fault.

Guys, there is a way to fix it.

Use a steam-version! ;)

It's because steam doesn't save your configuration properly then, which makes shortcuts dissapear as they are not saved.

Only fix I've found that worked for me when this happened once was exitting steam, deleting Clientregistry.blob and starting it up again. If that doesn't work you can try reinstalling steam entirely though (just remove all steam files besides Steam.exe and remove all folders besides Steamapps (your games) and start the client again, it will rebuild itself.
