SAM Picker starts but crashes and even shuts down Steam

[AngelArrow]

Since a couple of days, I have the following issue:

I can start the SAM.Picker.exe. It loads all of my games. I can select the game I want to work with but the moment it opens the achievements, the application crashes and shuts down Steam.

I can recreate this issue every single time. No exceptions. In my case, the application is not working anymore.

I need more information. What OS version, what Steam version, what game, etc.

Windows 11 23H2 (22631.4317). Steam Stable Client 1730853027.

It happens to all games. Itll launch the picker exe, then itll say "shutting down game", then "shutting down steam" and the entire thing closes.

@gibbed I fixed it... On my end atleast. I had ArchiSteamFarm Running.

I guess SAM is not compatible with it. After stopping it, SAM works on all my games again.

If youd like, could add a warning in the README for ASF or other steam utilities incase someone does the same thing I did.
