1.0.14 Cannot login again

Open lnickersl opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

Recently I cannot "Login again". Tested on 1.0.13/1.0.14

After entering password, window get's stuck in infinite load. 11111

I have 2 accounts like this. Reloading program doesn't help.

Is there a way to reset this without losing mobile authantication status?

I can re-login into steam using SG code just fine.

This is a known issue, and SDA isn't going to get updated for a while. Jessecar96 themselves has said on discord that he's too busy to update SDA right now. I highly recommend that you should use the steam mobile app, if you are able to.

If you are interested, I maintain steamguard-cli. It's capable of reading the exactly the same maFiles that SDA does, so you don't have to deal with a trade ban. It doesn't have a UI, so if you aren't really comfortable using a terminal, I would recommend you use the steam mobile app. You can download it here: https://github.com/dyc3/steamguard-cli/releases

Read the quickstart here: https://github.com/dyc3/steamguard-cli/blob/master/docs/quickstart.md

You can transfer an existing authenticator to the official steam mobile app, but that does cause a 2 day trade ban.
