Remember credentials

It asks for steam login information and steam guard code every time, it's annoying to enter it every time.

Hi, I believe DepotDownloader is working to solve that issue. Other than that i can't really do anything about it.

Alright . Can you make it remember the download location ?

DogancanYr avatar Dec 08 '23 20:12 DogancanYr

I looked at the DepotDownloader github page and saw that there is code for remembering the password.

I'll look into it

Check the code for your self then.

Is there any news regarding this?

Hi, I made a start of a rewrite of SteamDepotDownloaderGUI. It will eventually have this feature but it is not really a priority right now because of school. Another issue is that as of now it doesn't work on Windows (gtk-rs) which is obviously the major userbase of SteamDepotDownloaderGUI. So I need to find a different framework for this.

I'll keep you updated on it but don't expect it any time soon. Thanks

You really had to tease us like this? :D

^ Thanks for the info. Best of luck with school and projects

Thanks everyone for the support!

I found this: https://iced.rs/. Looks perfect for this as I am learning the Rust language so this will help a lot. I hope it integrates better with cross-platform support

Update: I started working on the rewrite! For now I won't focus on adding new features but instead focus on improving the backend (which is in Rust now!). Once that is fully functional to the level it is currently in JS I will work on adding more features.

Also to get back to the topic of this issue, It seems doable to make SteamDepotDownloaderGUI remember login information so I will see if I can implement this. I will probably need to store past logins somewhere in the folder securely and then check if DepotDownloader has those credentials/tokens whatever saved as well and then act upon that.
