Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago

vicious-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago

Where did you see the disk write error appear?
vicious-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago
where?
Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
in steam?
vicious-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago
yes, in steam it says that right after i try to open the game
Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
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 somewhere
vicious-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago
ah alr also, just for reference im on windows 11 not by choice, my laptop updated to it without my consent anyways.
Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
should be similar
vicious-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago
alr man how am i going to find the dotnet.exe with this many programs
Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
order by name
vicious-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago
alr uh where's the "order by name" option??

💀 how do i search it?
Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
do you know the english alphabet? if it's not there - it's not there
vicious-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago
i do know the english alphabet
Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
in that case, if it's an error specifically in steam, with TML not really starting at all - this is a bit cursed
vicious-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago
yeah
Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
have you tried complete reinstalls? Involving removal of TML's folder, which should be at C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\tModLoader
vicious-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago
... i i already did that :woah:
Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
I can't know and will not read the wall of text above
vicious-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago
whar what wall of text
Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
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-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago
disabling cloud sync?
Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
Right click TML in library, go to properties, disable this

Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
is steam ran as administrator? it must be
vicious-gold
vicious-goldOP4y ago
i dont think so it might be the download region
Mirsario
Mirsario4y ago
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.
