@AvyTheMan (Comms Open!) how much free space do you have on your partitions?
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
partitions?
disk partitions
see "This computer"
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
what's that.
oh
ok
im on a laptop just for reference btw
you mean "this pc"?
yes
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
ah
ok
and then
🗿
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
sorry
Screenshot your drives
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
im kinda dumb
ah
k
vicious-goldOP•4y ago

Where did you see the disk write error appear?
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
where?
in steam?
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
yes, in steam
it says that right after i try to open the game
right click taskbar at the bottom of the screen, go to task manager, press "more details" in bottom left if it's tiny, go to "details", check if there's a lingering
dotnet.exe somewherevicious-goldOP•4y ago
ah
alr
also, just for reference im on windows 11
not by choice, my laptop updated to it without my consent
anyways.
should be similar
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
alr
man how am i going to find the dotnet.exe with this many programs
order by name
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
alr
uh
where's the "order by name" option??
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
💀
how do i search it?
do you know the english alphabet?
if it's not there - it's not there
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
i do know the english alphabet
in that case, if it's an error specifically in steam, with TML not really starting at all - this is a bit cursed
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
yeah
have you tried complete reinstalls? Involving removal of TML's folder, which should be at
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\tModLoadervicious-goldOP•4y ago
...
i
i already did that
:woah:
I can't know and will not read the wall of text above
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
whar
what wall of text
Only theory I have for now is that it may be trying doing steam cloud sync? Try disabling that for TML
+ restart steam afterwards
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
disabling cloud sync?
Right click TML in library, go to properties, disable this

vicious-goldOP•4y ago
alr
I think that won't get rid of any files you may have there?
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
alr
how do i restart steam?

vicious-goldOP•4y ago
alr
:woah:
it didnt work
IT DIDNT FUCKING WORK
I'M GOING TO HAVE A GODDAMN STROKE
is steam ran as administrator? it must be
vicious-goldOP•4y ago
i dont think so
it might be the download region
go do this, assuming your user is an admin

if that doesn't help - troubleshoot yourself with the help of this - https://www.howtogeek.com/791864/how-to-fix-a-steam-disk-write-error/
How-To Geek
A “Disk Write Error” while downloading or updating a game in Steam has several possible causes. Luckily, a majority of them aren’t indicative of a serious problem with your PC. In most cases, a disk write error occurs because of a permissions problem or file corruption and can be easily resolved.
