Why is my Steam not working?
There are a few common reasons why Steam might not be working. First, check your internet connection because Steam needs it to run properly. If that's fine, try restarting your computer—classic but effective! Sometimes, Steam servers might be down, so it's worth checking Steam's server status online. Another thing you could do is to update Steam or run it as an administrator. If none of these work, you might need to reinstall Steam, but remember to backup your games first!
