Something with some Windows update screwed up my Steam. I've literally tried everything to fix it, but the only thing that works is right clicking, properties, compatibility troubleshooter, launch in Windows 8 compatibility mode.
If I set it to that in the actual compatibility tab, it doesn't work. I have to launch it through the compatibility troubleshooter. I have no idea why this happens, but it just does.
So I'm wondering if there is a way to make a shortcut that will launch the troubleshooter without me having to right click and do all that stuff. Or better yet, a shortcut that just does exactly what the "test this program" button does when it launches Steam, whatever that may be. I'm just trying to eliminate some steps here.
1While this can be answered (as the Answers show), you may wish to ask about your underlying problem. As far as I know, there isn't an uncompatibility with Steam and the latest Win 10, so there is likely something that could be done to fix this. Just because you've tried everything you can think of doesn't mean you've tried everything. – trlkly – 2018-07-08T22:51:39.890
You've said you've tried everything. Does that include reinstalling Steam or reinstalling Windows? – Nzall – 2018-07-09T07:18:37.760
