    i am not sure if this is the right place to make my post. i am having some problems with steam and i need help

    i am having problems with the new steam updates. in the past 2 months i am noticing that the steam chat window is freezing and becoming unresponsive so i have to kill the task steam client webhelper in the task manager and that will close the steam chat window and then i am exiting steam and restarting it

    the steam chat window is freezing because the task steam client webhelper is misbehaving. the problem is new and it started after a recent steam update. if i am playing a game when the steam client webhelper misbehaves then i am getting alt tabbed out of the game

    i uninstalled steam and i deleted all the left over files. l will install steam later

    how do i stop this task from misbehaving?
