Specific steam games are opening and closing. I have tried every solution I have read about and nothing is working. I have reinstalled steam and the game and still isn't fixed.

Hi, Justin Tuazon

Since reinstalling hasn’t helped, it’s worth checking for background software conflicts rather than repeating the same fixes. Other applications can interfere with Steam games and cause crashes.

Here are some suggestions you can try:

Temporarily disable the Steam overlay for one affected game. In Steam > Library, right-click the game, select Properties > General, and turn off Enable the Steam Overlay while in-game. Test the game afterward.

If you use MSI Afterburner or RivaTuner, it is recommended that you close both completely before launching the game. Also temporarily close other gaming overlays, such as Discord’s, to check for interference.

If it still closes, open Event Viewer through Windows Search. Select Windows Logs > Application and look for an error matching the time the game closed. This can help narrow down the failure instead of guessing.

Please share the affected game names, your Windows version, and the error’s faulting module name and exception code, if listed.
