Hi guys, i am not able to launch l4d demo from steam. I get a message the steam ticket has expired and prompts me to renter my password. I continue to get the same message every time i launch it from steam. I played the demo in the morning. It was working well. I am still able to run it from the steam folder. Any idea as to what is wrong? And this is happening only with the demo and not with any of my other steam games. Please help me out. Thanks.

Restart Steam several times to make sure you didn't miss an update.

Also, Steam doesn't like a fragmented hard drive...at all. Defragment your hard drive.

Finally, right click on the game in your games list and verify the integrity of it. You can also individually defragment the games files in there.

Good luck!

Restarted steam, defragmented the drive and the game files as well. Restarted my pc as well. Still the problem persists. Any other suggestions?

Try restarting your computer all together.
