1. i cant view my profile, so my name in game ( i can only play solo ) is "fresh meat" and all my perks are on lvl 0... i think the in game nick must be the steam account nick but it isnt... i play this game many times before and 4 example the demolition perk was on lvl 6... and other perks on 2,3 and other lvls...

2. i cant connect to any server... if i try to connect there is an error massage that says " there is an unknown error by connect to the server, conntact steam support"... steam say i have to check my ports, and i do it with an steam port checking programm but there are no problems with the ports...

and the last problem is

3. i only can start the game if i rightclick on the killingfloor.exe in the system folder and start it as an admin...

why all these happens? all my other steam games works fine without any problem... i have try many things to fix the problems, like delete all files and download it again, give the game a higher priority ... ... ... nothing help to fix it...

i need fast help pls... i wanna play my game... it is realy frustrating that i cant play kf... my clan have 3 kf server where i pay 4 every month, but i cant play...

i thanks 4 your help, and hope 4 fast... and sry if there is an articel that would solve my problems, but i dont find it...

What happens when you try to launch the game through Steam? Is there an error message?
German:
Was passiert denn wenn du das Spiel in Steam starten willst? Gibt es eine Fehlermeldung?

P.S.: I'm German and willing to translate if necessary ;).

You must launch the game from steam or you will not be able to play it online. Can explain what happens when you try to launch the game from steam?

Try either disabling UAC (not advised if you do not have any anti-virus software) or launch Steam as administrator.

As already said, you must launch the game through Steam in order to use perks and achievements.

Relax, buddy. Killing Floor has been out for so long that the members are usually better at answering questions than we are. I have never run into or heard of any problems like this that couldn't be solved by running Steam as administrator and/or marking the Killing Floor executable to be run as administrator.

That being said, it looks like you haven't marked KillingFloor.exe to run as administrator since you keep saying you have to right click on it and select "Run As Administrator" for it to work. Try doing this on KillingFloor.exe:

http://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-7/always-run-as-administrator/

Then, run Steam as administrator, as you've been doing, and launch Killing Floor through Steam.
