I tried launch game from steam, and from desktop shortcuts but i stilll have this error. I have this problen on EU4 and HoI4, pls help
 
Can you translate that message for us please? Being an image we can't run it through Google Translate. Thanks.

And, have these games and that launcher run okay before this? Do you know what change or update seemed to trigger this propblem?
 
An error occurred while connecting to Steam. Make sure that Stear is running without administrator privileges and try to run the game directly via Steam. If this error persists, contact support. You can go to the game without paying attention to this error,However, some functions will not be available in this case.
To skip Exit
 
That message means you have run. eu4.exe directly, not started the game from Steam. It is normal in that situation. What happens if you start the game from the Steam PLAY button?

HOI4 will not show that message, only EU4 does. What happens if you start the game from the Steam PLAY button?
 
I have the same issue. only with EU4.
I play with Linux. Manjaro last version.
I've uninstalled Steam and all the games, and then reinstalled the games. I've deleted the directories. unsubscribed mods.

The game works fine with other Paradox games like Cities Skylines or Crusader Kings, but with EU4, no matter what I do, it keeps failing. From Steam or from EU4.exe, if I ignore it, the game eventually crashes.
Steam runs without any issues, and other non-Paradox games work smoothly.

I'm attaching the logs from yesterday."

And finally, what worked was clicking to use Proton and then unchecking it. Downloading the Linux version did the trick. But even with this trick. you had the message. it's a shit.
*************************************
"In steam, right click, properties, compatibility, check "Force the use of specific Steam Play compatibility tool", uncheck it again.
A new download (~290 MB) should start. It's the actually Linux version again."
