Describe what you expected should happen and what did happen. Please link any large code pastes as a Github Gist
Recently I opened Steam and found out that games are being updated automatically.
However, a game (PUBG in this case) stuck and showed that "Completing 0%"
After that, I opened the task manager and saw the steam process was running and seemed to be trapped in some dead loops.
The command line is: python3 /home/labo/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton - Experimental/proton run /home/labo/.local/share/Steam/legacycompat/iscriptevaluator.exe legacycompat\evaluatorscript_578080.vdf
That process CANNOT be stopped, killed, suspended even I closed the entire Steam client. It`s just annoying.
I have tried to figure it out based on my python knowledge but I found that I was unable to capture the environment variables it receives.
BTW, I installed games on another NTFS drive. There is no permission misconfigurations. But it could be the cause.
I expect those games can get updated successfully and the hanging roaring process can just stop properly.
