If you can show a screenshot I can fix it
@krlk89 What OS are you running? (its very easy to get a list of files in a directory -- however its a little different on every platform)
I was thinking of a built-in feature for SteamCleaner to get the list, but I guess it's not that important. Anyway, here is the list of files for The Talos Principle that get deleted, which breaks the game.

EDIT: Might be related to #15.
Instead of requiring screenshots and similar, just write to a log file what was deleted and whether anything failed to delete.
@Lunatrius Yeah, that would be a good way to do it.
@Lunatrius a list IS generated on failed to delete files, I just ran steam cleaner after having ran talos once and it worked fine
@krlk89 If you delete the files now, does it still work? It looks to me like you deleted the setup files before completing the first time setup.
Games need to be ran once before cleaning
The Talos Principle seems to work fine now (atleast the game started properly), however, I had run it multiple times before the first cleaning with SteamCleaner.
I ran SteamCleaner and after that I was unable to launch The Talos Principle. After verifying integrity of game cache (in Steam) and redownloading ~95 MB of files I was able to launch The Talos Principle again.
When opening SteamCleaner the files are listed again. (Is it possible to create a text file of the files? Making screenshots of large list is quite annoying.)
