[Error] Steam AND RO won't start

[Fuhrer Cool]

Hi! I click on steam, and it says Steam.exe(main exception): CMultiFieldBlob(pSerialized): Bad Field - extends past end of blob. The same thing happens when i cick on RO icon. Also, before this, when I logged into steam to try to let it instll latest RO patch, it just said searching for steam games updates... for like an hour and has not moved since. Can anyone help me with these 2 problems?

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Have you tried the solution that has you deleting the clientregistry.blob file in your Steam directory? Try that, log into Steam, and see if it works then.

Got the same problem now... I can play ONCE and then RO won't start an I have to delete the systems folder to make it work again. But I don't want to delete this folder every time I want to play Red Orchestra... Is there a different solution?

Pechente post your redorchestra.log file here plz.

Sorry that my Logfile comes that late but i simply redownloaded RO to fix that problem, which didn't help for this time... So what happens is I start Red Orchestra and not even the Welcome Screen appears. I find RO in the processes (at task manager) using 0% CPU and shut it down.

Here is the Log:

that log seems to be from a time when the error doesn't happen i need the log of when the problem occurs.
