Some of steam games wont launch
I have a weird problem. For a few months now, when I buy new game it wont start. It will just say it started, then steam library will say "running" for a second and then back to nothing. It happened wo me with several games. But everything I have long term is fine. I have radeon 5600XT and ryzen 9950X. Short of reinstalling my windows I tried everything. Reinstalling game, checking the files, updating drivers and clearing the steam cache. Does anybody know?

Have you tried repairing the library files themselves? This sort of thing sounds like a lib index corruption, or maybe you tried to install games on a different drive than what you had previously?

Settings->Storage-> ... -> Repair Library
You can also try adding the game as a non-Steam title, and seeing if that works. Worst comes to worst, you may need to reinstall the Steam client itself. (Assuming your drive is clean of errors, and system is virus free).

Thank you for the response. It was Media Feature pack for windows. Some games wont start without it and there is no info about that. I was lucky to make the connection. (A year ago i tried to connect web cam and it said I dont have MFP, which somehow my brain connected to some game snot working)
