A few days ago I was blocked in the Steam community for 14 years, for a comment. Then with the support we all resolved, and I was unblocked, but then, after that I can no longer launch the Steam client. The computer does not display any message about the current state of the client, just the usual loading, and that's it - silence. Before all this, the client worked fine, even considering the fact that Windows 8.1 is no longer supported by Steam. If anyone knows what to do - please help

I've had the same issue with Windows 7 recently. It worked for almost a year past the official EOL, but not since about a week ago. When I start Steam, it freezes, and my computer with it.

I'm guessing some recent update probably created for the first time an actual technical dependency on Windows 10 and it stopped working for good on older OS. Mine still works on Linux. If yours does too, then it's probably just the OS.
