Corrupted Steam cache files can be a reason that is preventing you from logging in to your account. If the scenario applies, you should be able to fix the issue by clearing up the Steam cache. Here are the steps to delete Steam cache files:

1. Firstly, press Windows + E to open the File Explorer.

   C:Users[Username]AppDataLocalSteam

   In the above address, replace [Username] with your username.

5] Check your internet connection.

If you are not connected to a stable internet connection, it can prevent you from successfully logging into your account on Steam. So, do check your internet connection and if there is some issue with your network, troubleshoot network and internet problems. Also, check the speed of your internet connection and if it is slow, consider switching your WiFi.

Additionally, you can also power cycle your router and modem to fix internet problems. To do that, unplug your router and modem and then wait for at least 30 seconds to let them shut down completely. After that, plug in your router and modem and restart them.

Try logging into your account now and see if the error is fixed.

6] Add Steam to the whitelist of your antivirus and firewall

Your antivirus or firewall is capable of blocking Steam-related tasks and processes and might also prevent you from signing in to your account. So, try disabling your firewall/ antivirus and see if the issue is fixed or not. If yes, the problem is caused due to your security suite.

Disabling your security suite can expose your PC to various threats. So, we don’t recommend doing that. Instead, you can whitelist the Steam program in your firewall or antivirus so that it doesn’t block Steam. If you are using Windows Firewall, you can follow this guide to add Steam to the whitelist. Similarly, you can add Steam to the exception list of your antivirus.

Hopefully, this will fix the issue for you.

7] Close background programs

If there are some background programs that are interfering with Steam and preventing you from login into your account, close the background programs. For that, just open the Task Manager using the Ctrl + Shift + Esc hotkey and then select the suspected background programs. After that, press the End Task button to close them. You can now try relaunching the Steam client and see if you are able to log in without any problem.

8] Use a VPN

If you are locked out of Steam after too many login attempts, you can use a VPN aka Virtual Private Network. VPN anonymizes and encrypts your internet traffic and will enable you to log in to your Steam account if your account is blocked after several unsuccessful login attempts. You can use a Gaming VPN. There are some more free VPN software that you can use for Windows 11/10.
