+Zagadka Subscriber² Posted May 26, 2018 Subscriber² Share Posted May 26, 2018 Never noticed anything more than average... what, once every week or two? Seems reasonable for a software streaming service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mindovermaster Moderator Posted May 27, 2018 Moderator Share Posted May 27, 2018 How often do you open it? You have it set to run on boot? Could be if you didn't open it in 2 weeks, that may be why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeman25 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Usually open it every day and play game, set to run on boot right now, but might change that when I tune up PC a bit, and remove some stuff I don't use possibly. could even be Avast blocking the updates maybe, who knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not always. In fact, I usually don't see a change log after an update. I have seen change logs but rarely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The patch notes are displayed in the Update notification, not afterwards: Also check if you are on the beta program, you might be seeing more frequent updates as a result.

As I said though, I rarely see one. Anyway, I guess its not a big deal. Was mainly a rant when I first posted. It just really slows down the boot process, thats all. Once I get around to installing my SSD boot drive, it won't be such an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least seems like every boot It doesn't update it just checks if there's an update available. When it's updating you need to restart it after and it displays the changes log in a window.

Yazoo Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 If your Steam client is installing an update every time you run/login to it then a failed update maybe the likely cause. It used to happen to me. I manually downloaded the latest client and did a full re-install this fixed it. Not sure if yours is the same issue but maybe worth a try.
