I can't scrap my weapons, Fuck SteamWebHelper
« on: November 27, 2014, 02:54:57 am »
This has gone on since the new Steam Client update months ago, where now there's multiple "SteamWebHelper" instances that sit idle on your system, taking up resources. But now it's gotten worse!  I can't trade or scrap my weapons because the damn trade screen freezes up when I accept a trade, and for each time it says "the scrapbank bot is currently offline".  It's like the scrapbank bot is deliberately ignoring my hails.

And when I do get the trade window to come up, I can barely get any controls to work or anything moved, because then I have to go into the Task Manager to boost the priorities of the five or six SteamWebHelpers running in the background.  I mean seriously? Valve's bullshit needs to stop.  Whatever happened to rendering pages inside the client rather than relying on a separate process to do it with?

How many trades actually failed or scrapbank requests actually been declined because the trade window didn't load?
