Steam fails until I restart Steam

Wondering if anyone has encountered this. Basically, I launch the standalone game and steam/online subsystem fails to load. But as soon as I restart steam (logging back in) and relaunch the app, it works fine.

I’m having this exact problem, did you ever managed to fix this issue?

Restarting Steam can often help resolve problems with Internet connectivity when trying to load or play games.

You can restart Steam by closing and reopening the client, or refresh your Steam files in the event you feel that Steam’s files may be modified, corrupted, missing, or misconfigured on your operating system.

  • Click on “Steam” in the toolbar at the top left corner of your Steam
  • session Select “Exit” or “Exit Steam.” Your current session of Steam
  • will close. Double-click on the Steam icon on your desktop to relaunch Steam.
