Unable to Connect.....

....To the steam network!!!!

I came onto my computer today for a quick game before i go out for a run. Steam says its unable to connect to the steam network.

I ask some of my UK freinds and they have the same problem too!!!

Is anyone else in the UK having this problem or is it just the few of us?!?

!!UPDATE!! If you are having this problem, Delete the clientregistry.blob from the steam directory.

The directory looks something like this:

C:\Program Files\Steam

Hope this can help anyone experiencing this annoying problem.

Why cant we have WON servers back *cryface*

Yeah same thing happened to me today, but I have learned from experience to delete all that rubbish and let it DL again.

As i said on the #2 post, delete the clientregistry.blob from the steam directory.

Then load steam and it will re-download the clientregistry.blob and u shud be able to logon to steam.

That's what I'm confused about. Idk where that is.

Goto Program Files where your steam folder is, sometimes its a folder called valve.

In this folder you will see a file called clientregistry.blob or clientregistry if you havnt set the computer to hide file extensions. Once you have found the file clientregistry.blob delete it and start up steam.

If you still find this difficult simply search your computer by clicking start > search....

Select "All Files and Folders", in the search box enter: *.blob now hit the search button and wait for windows to find it.

Once the file clientregistry.blob is found delete it, then start up steam and u shouldnt have any more problems.
