[Bug] Millennium keeps resetting to default steam every boot

Before Reporting

[X] I found no existing issues matching my bug
[X] My issue is not caused by a theme

Describe the Bug

Everytime I reboot my PC, the steam will reset to default. There is no options from millennium can be seen. I have to do the powershell script every time to bring back millennium and the theme.

What I have tried:

Fresh reinstall steam
Uninstall millennium and install again

My settings:

Steam located in D:\Steam
Using fluenty theme
Millennium version 2.11.1

Is it steam forcing something? Or I should install specific version of steam. But I don't think that's a problem. I had 3 PC installed millenium with the same theme. Only one pc has this problem... kinda frustrating

Expected Behavior

As mentioned above

Steps To Reproduce

Reboot > open steam > steam reset to default **update: switching account make this happens too A .crash file appears in steam folder

GameOverlayRenderer.log

When I run the powershell script again, I see more lines shown in the picture 2024-10-03 225209

Operating System

Windows

Anything else?

When you notice it not working anymore do the following:

Check you antivirus hasn't deleted Millennium.
Check user32.dll exists in the Steam folder.

You can also start steam with -dev and leaving it running like that until either you see an error, or the dev console no longer shows.

Hi, I took some more time to troubleshoot, the problem still exists

tried changing other theme
tried moving the steam folder from another pc to my laptop
user32.dll exists
antivirus is disable I really love millennium. It works fine on my other pc. But no idea why not working well on my new laptop...

You are confident that when this issue happens, user32.dll is still in the Steam folder?

Indeed, I am watching the folder when steam is launching. I also edit the files in "D:\Steam\ext\millennium.ini" And change the content to devtools = no dev_packages = no auto_update_dev_packages = yes use_pip = yes python = D:\Steam\ext\data\cache\python.exe pip_logs = D:\Steam\ext\data\logs\pacman.log pip_boot = D:\Steam\ext\data\logs\pip_boot.log

Seems doesn't matter. Any suggestion on next step? I am thinking if the steam force update itself every boot.

When I had the same situation, it was because my tinkering with the themes triggered some kind of validation of files. I know, because I saw the "Updating Steam" box appear for a split second on launch and then Millenium was no longer active. So, I think what you said about the forced update might be correct.

However, a reinstall of Millenium fixed it every time for me.

Also, just to make sure, my millenium.ini has these lines at the end of the file:

[Settings] check_for_updates = yes enabled_plugins = core useinterface = yes
