What is this file
Sometimes it happens that when starting a game, the system displays an error stating that the required file was not found. Most often this happens when working with pirated versions of software. Below you will find detailed step-by-step instructions to help solve this problem.

How to Install
Let's move on to a specific example, from which you will learn how to fix an error when the operating system cannot continue working due to the fact that a required component is missing:
- First, we turn to the download section, where using a direct link we download the corresponding archive. We unpack the data to any convenient place. We copy the resulting file and move it to one of the system directories, depending on the bitness of the OS used.
For Windows 32 Bit: C:\Windows\System32
For Windows 64 Bit: C:\Windows\SysWOW64
In order to check the architecture installed by Windows, you can press the “Win” and “Pause” buttons at the same time.
- We will also definitely need to register the newly added component. To do this, you need to run the command line with administrator privileges, and then use the operator
cd
, go to the folder where we copied the DLL. Further using the operatorregsvr32 steam_api64.dll
We carry out the registration itself and be sure to reboot the OS.
If during operation you see a message that the download is blocked, try repeating the operation with superuser privileges.
