Restart your game and Steam. Sometimes it's just a glitch that needs a quick reset. If that doesn't work, check your internet connection - CS:GO needs a stable connection to function properly. Another trick is to verify the integrity of game files through Steam. Right-click CS:GO in your Steam library, go to Properties > Local Files and click on "Verify integrity of game files." Sometimes files get corrupted and this can fix it. Lastly, if you're using a custom DNS like Google's or Cloudflare's, switch back to your ISP's default or try another one. DNS issues can cause server not responding errors.

Honestly, sometimes the servers are just down. Check CS:GO’s official Twitter or Reddit to see if others are having the same problem. If the servers are down, there’s nothing you can do but wait.
