Sneesby Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 It's diabolical. My latest problem, has happened before, and is happening again. i have just got back off holiday in Australia and turned steam back into online mode, for it to start updating. it updates and then i get a stupid little pop up box saying "preparing to open FM2012" when i go to open the game and then nothing. i try and quit steam and i can't cos it says it has to close FM2012 first, WHICH ISNT OPEN!.Steam is a joke. I remember something about rem naming a file some where, to fix this, but can't remember what... Any help? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomtuck01 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 This happened to me. ll I did was exited Steam, restarted my computer, opened up Steam again, switched back to Offline mode, (I only go Online when there is an update), and there you go, it worked.
