Describe the issue

Image

After Steam has been left idle for a while, it eventually encounters an error and becomes unusable until the Steam client is restarted.

I am using Millennium with only one plugin enabled:

  • SteamDB

For the theme, I am using:

  • SpaceTheme for Steam

The issue seems to occur after Steam has been running in the background for some time without interaction. Once the error appears, the Steam UI becomes unstable and the only workaround is to restart the Steam client.

Confirmation

  • I tested with the latest Extendium version
  • The extension works in Google Chrome (or another Chromium browser)

Extendium Plugin Version

v2.0.4

Millennium Version

v3.2.0

Operating System

Windows

Steps To Reproduce

switch from "store/shop" page to "library" page, then wait some time

Logs / Console output

cef_log.txt

Other installed extensions (optional)

No response

Troubleshooting tried

  • Restarted Steam
  • Reinstalled this extension from the Chrome Web Store URL
  • Switched to Default skin/theme
  • Removed other extensions to rule out conflicts
