He's only deleting 50mb of files. It's obviously a problem for him if he can't access it as he usually wants to, and I am providing a fix. Link to comment

Did u change ur setting? or did someone else? im thinking he either cant 1: open form the taskbar or 2: cant open from a friends shortcut if his problem is opening steam he would have said he couldn't open steam rather than steam friends Link to comment

It should, just be mindful of your "steamapps" folder, it contains your games,maps etc. Link to comment
