trolling is gonna troll, deleting those files does nothing than force steam to re-dl them.

it's similar of delete your sys32 folder to crash your computer

it`s not like you can`t copy them before deleting just to be sure...

and since someone else said that restarting steam worked or him because an outstanding update was installed then, this seemed plausible to me, so i tried and redownloading these files fixed an error that seemed to be in one of these files, for now it works fine. give t a try, i would like to know if this works for more people than me and emiliano`s friends

edit: also worked for user T3HK4T

They see OP win
They hatin'

(though I will admit all the Caps Lock makes him/her look like a total troll, even if he/she IS helping.)


Before you fail even more, stop being so ignorant. Re-downloading the files is the fix because the current one is corrupted or outdated.

Your comparision is so incredibly off.
