That I cannot run the game without it leaves me speechless. Tarnicus: 'The program can't start because steam_api.dll is missing from your computer'Īs for it being something 'not out of the ordinary' I disagree strongly with that statement given the file is digitally signed by Valve and being released by their competitor (GOG).

Still haven't heard back from support and I don't suppose I will anytime soon given the woes of The Witcher 3, Galaxy and the state of the forums.Īs for it being something 'not out of the ordinary' I disagree strongly with that statement given the file is digitally signed by Valve and being released by their competitor (GOG). Given that it does not interfere with normal execution, and it does not actually kick in any DRM stuff, they probably didn't bother to recompile a specific executable for GOGįaster way to check out: rename the file and see if the game reports a missing dependency on startup 'The program can't start because steam_api.dll is missing from your computer'

if the game in question has Steamworks integration, they might have compiled the exe in a fashion that requires the DLL to be in place, even if the actual function are never invoked. Antaniserse: Haven't checked mine, but it is not something completely out of the ordinary.
