Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

When I try to play I receive Vac unable to verify game session. I reinstalled the game a couple of times and verified installation files a lot. I also purged Steam from the system, reinstalled and still doesn't work.
What works though is creating a new account and playing on it. I think it is something related to my account configuration that gets synced in the cloud.. Let me know if I can provide any other details..

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Open the game
  2. Hit play, choose any Matchmaking mode and Start
  3. Receive Vac unable to verify game session
