I have only tried the "local machine" and "64-bit steam ID" options. Both produce the same result

Additional context
I have premium api set up, if that makes a difference.

I have a similar problem.

After some browsing in the source code I found a possible reason for this problem. I am not part of the development team of this project, thus I have only a small understanding of the source code.

Depressurizer has several ways to retrieve the user game list.

1. Local:

• Description: The localconfig.vdf file is accessed.
• Problem: In this file it tries to retrieve a specific list ("Licenses"). It seems that Valve has changed the structure and components of this file and removed this list. (probably it was moved to the licensecache file).

2. Web update with Steam id/ApiToken:

• Description: Should access the public - games list
• Problem: The functions I found related to this don't seem to work (featureless, only visual functionality).

I think currently depressurizer is not functional anymore.

Again this is only my humble opinion, with my limited understanding.

Could you open your File Explorer and go to %appdata%/Depressurizer/logs , remove all the .log files and try to update your game list. After that close Depressurizer and please upload the log file here or send it to me per email. I'm unable to replicate this

[KoboldShenanigans]

I'm having the exact same issue and i just downloaded the program.

[pborchert]

Sorry I took so long getting back to you. It's been a hellish week at work. I sent it to your email. I didn't want to post it here in case information should be private.

I have this problem too, but I installed my game on another disk drive. Can that be a problem as to why it doesn't detect the game?

Same issue here - Does DP just not work anymore due to Steam's library changes? That's unfortunate.

I've tried using the local machine user, custom URL, and both with and without the web API - Can't load my game list at all.

[pborchert]

If you look back @mvegter wanted my log and a few more of us submitted logs as well. I hope he will respond soon. Shame on Steam for not having a backward compatible API.

[mescaline007]

seems Steam updated their DB, so now local file differs, and here's the bunch of issues because of it

[thisischrys]

Can confirm, issue is present on new installs, tried multiple different machines.

[therealbungus]

This is even happening on old installs. This bug renders this program unusable at the moment.

I was working with the latest release this weekend and had no problems.
