Stuck on Cache Watcher Started, my friends list isn't patched #24

Closed ghost closed 2 years ago

ghost commented 2 years ago

Hello there! I've been trying to set up SFP to use it alongside Steam-OG and Steam-OG-Library. The problem is, I haven't been able to use it since yesterday, it's my first time trying to test it out but I have zero knowledge on how it actually works. I followed the steps on the readme, but despite that, I am still not able to patch Steam. Sometimes I got the "close and open Steam friends list" message, but once I did that, it wouldn't get registered/detected. Here's the logs of the program:

I should mention that I'm using Steam beta as well, but I don't think that should be too much of an issue. Thanks in advance!

Have you tried restarting Steam after patching?

Have you installed a theme for the friends list to friends.custom.css?

Okay, I am really stupid. I have a dualboot for two Windows installations, and all this time I've been modifying the other Steam installation. I am used to messing around with everything from my secondary HDD, not from my main OS partition, and I forgot that I had Steam installed on the main partition of this alternate Windows install. Sorry for the trouble, and thanks a lot for helping me realize about the mistake lol
