August 16, 200519 yr This will work for you: Go into your task manager, during the installation/update, you should see Steamtmp.exe and STEAM.exe running, the moment you see steamtmp.exe appear, go to steam.exe and end it manually. The writers of the code say that at 26%/27% of installation the installation changes how it installs. So, when you see steamtmp.exe and steam.exe running at the same time, you need to end steam.exe for steamtmp.exe run correctly and install correctly.
