WHAT IS THIS?

there is no file with that name in the cfg folder

 

In me server i dont have any folder Steam in Program Files (x86), idk why have this error in console server

 

Make sure you have built your files right

 

i have me server in C:/Servers/ with server files and steamapp, but i dont have nothing in Program Files (x86)

 

No idea what you are saying

 

this error is for me server or client? i dont have any folder here C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam in me server

 

Not on my gaming pc so cant check if this is client based am sure @Wulf can help you better

 

okay thanks

 

Try going to that location and making sure keys.cfg is not read-only. Otherwise, try running your game (or steam) as an Administrator and see if that fixes it. I'm pretty sure it's the first thing though.

This is from my console. It would appear as though it's happening whenever this person is trying to log into my server
