After a serious problem its users database at Christmas time running Steam still around: particular problems when sending e-mails are to blame, that apparently many users can not access their games library

On the online platform Steam, there are apparently back problems.. Many users report both in the community forum as well on Reddit, that they have not received for activating the clients needed on a new computer mail with a confirmation code. According to Kotaku.com them especially – be affected customers who are using a mail account at Microsoft – but not exclusively. During the self-test also Golem.de has received a message in Hotmail.

For users that has the consequence that they do not get access to their own Steam account, if you are not logged on for some time. This is annoying especially for those who allowed themselves to Christmas a new computer or on the go want to play with friends or relatives – both are now impossible.

For more problems there will be on Steam in the search. Whether the current difficulties related to the interference of the Christmas period, which should have been triggered by an internal caching error is unclear. Valve has so far not commented on the current difficulties.

The online portal Steam from Valve Software is the most important platform for the sale of fee-based PC, Linux and Mac games for download. In addition to an online store, the website offers extensive community features. (ps)
