Litteraly cant launch gmod 6 years 2 months ago #820166

While launching gmod my pc crashed because i was playing in a non-native resolution and someone forced an alt+tab on me by poking me (therefore making the computer switch resolutions 2 times in a matter of seconds) and when i start my pc back up again this happened :


The game doesn't get recognised by steam even though it's installed (or at least the game files are there)

Make sure that the steam directory is correct, otherwise try running hl2.exe in the folder.
Have you tried pressing install?

Go to steam folder, find steamapps then rename it steamapps.old
Once you see that everything needs to be reinstalled just rename the folder back to steamapps
