Error while exporting your games: Error while trying to write your Steam shortcuts
All my games work fine to load into Steam except Astroneer. It is not detected by name like the others but the aumid begins with SystemEraSoftworks.
I have logged into other accounts on Steam before. The error is showing a user account I havent logged into since 2017 (and doesnt have a config folder) while all the other games I added used the proper user/config/shortcuts.vdf file
I have the same issue. I click OK a few times and keep getting the same error message. After about 3 of 4 clicks it finally says it is successful and I can then run the game from the shortcut in Steam. I am curious why I am getting this error though.
For me too, I discovered after doing this a few times at least one or two had actually been added to Steam.
Same issue for me. Mine tried to write to Steam\userdata\0\config. I don't know why I had a 0 folder as I only have the one Steam account on my PC, but once I deleted out that folder and exported again everything seemed to work out ok.
Nothing seemed worthwhile that was in my 0 folder, and notably there was no config folder.
I've fixed this by creating the folder "config" in every Steam\userdata\x directory the error message mentions.
I'm getting this error to, pretty sure it's because my Steam is installed at "G:\Steam" and not the default location.
Any way to change where this thing thinks Steam is?
Shouldn't be caused by a non default location, as mine is in a custom location and didn't have this issue.
Well, it tried to put it in Program Files (x86), even though I have nothing Steam there. Putting a symlink from there to my actual install location fixed this for me.
Creating a config folder in each folder in userdata fixed this for me, using this powershell script (run it from the userdata folder)
ForEach ($dir in (get-childitem -Path "./" | where {$_.mode -like 'd*'})){ New-Item -Path $dir.fullname -Name "config" -ItemType Directory }
