Hello i have this steam error code when i try to play a game on steam before you say anything i have tried all the posible solution from other threads a found and non of it work these solution was mcafee or whatever its called i don't use that antivirus and i have tried unintaling and reintaling the game and verifying the game files god knows how many times and i can figure out what causing the issue i even tried to install the game with my current antivirus closed and even that did't work
if anyone knows how to fix it replay to this thread please and thanks and the and games works fine i have on steam
 
if u know theres no background app running which could hinder steam connectivity, then read this
https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=9828-SFLZ-9289
https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=2198-AGHC-7226

here are all required ports to be opened
https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=8571-GLVN-8711

also from steam
Some ISPs have been found to block ports required for the proper operation of Steam and Steam games:


  • 012.net (Steam traffic blocked)
  • Bluewin (Firewall blocks Steam from provider side - must be disabled through provider's service portal)
  • Dutch Telecom (Steam traffic blocked)
  • ISPFree (Steam traffic blocked)
  • Micronet Broadband (Steam traffic blocked)

well, if the issue sill persists:
You did not include any required details for helping you (as with any other thread, you posted). Hence you get no answers.
It would be good to include information such as:
  • Which game have you played in steam?
  • Information about your system.
  • Did the error appear while playing or when starting the game?
  • Can you reproduce (repeat) the issue or does it appear randomly?
  • Did you receive any error message? (yes error Code 53)
  • Can you upload a screenshot of the error message?
  • Do you notice anything other uncommon, such as fast spinning fans before crash?

as for a quick research, following root causes have been found:
  • Steam servers currently offline
  • Bad internet connection / firewall / antivirus
  • Issue for steam writing to harddrive
  • Corrupted game files

have you verified to which drive you are installing the game? Does the harddrive have enough free space with some headroom?
Especially if it is an external, or old drive, the install might not work if the game is over 4 GB (often the case with USB thumb drives)
