Jamesbostock84 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Hello! I've noticed that quite a lot of the time, when i start up my computer and then go to open steam to play fm I get an error message saying... "Steam is already running in a different Windows user session" However steam is not open, no one else in my house uses steam and there is no one else on my network!? This also happens when i just click the fm2012 icon too, is there a way around it? or a reason why it happens? any help would be appreciated cos it happens at least 40% of the times I try to start the game and I have to restart my laptop at least once! Cheers! James Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turneep Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 ctrl + alt + del and go to Task Manager and when steam isnt running see if there is a steam.exe process running. Sounds like you have 2 user accounts on your laptop and on the other user account steam is open. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

daylight Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 It sounds like you have Steam set to start when your PC is switched on,It could be your computer is slow or depending on how many things you have to start up on Windows when you computer starts it could take a few minutes for Steam to start. You will be getting that message as Steam is trying to start,try setting Steam to not start when you switch your pc on and once the pc is up and running then start Steam.
