    I can't update. I've done everything written on the first page and nothing works. I've cleared the download cache, restarted, verified the files, uninstalled and reinstalled. It's almost finished, but the files just stop installing. I have enough space on my hard drive. I've been trying everything for a week now, and the update just won't finish. The other games update normally!

    @TD99 Hi, sorry to hear you're experiencing issues. Have you tried to recall what might be causing the problem? Possibly a recent driver update or another program interfering with AMS2 when running in Fullscreen or Borderless mode.

    @JohnC What solutions have you tried so far?

    Sorry to hear you're experiencing issues. Have you tried clearing the download cache via Steam's own settings? Open Steam > Settings > Downloads > Clear Download Cache. See if that resolves the issue.

    At this rate it's probably best to completely uninstall and reinstall the game.

    Yes, come to think of it, I updated my Elgato Drivers/software recently which was a few releases behind. So I've tested some more games and I am definitely seeing similar behavior on some of them (see below), therefore I'm very confident that the recent Elgato Stream Deck software update to version 6.9.1 (21711) is the culprit.

    EDIT/UPDATE: Yep, it's 100% the Elgato software. 6.8.X works fine, but starting with 6.9.X, the issue appears. Once I rolled back to 6.8.1, all games are working correctly again in WINDOWED BORDERLESS mode.

    AMS2
    WINDOWED = YES, Stream Deck works correctly
    BORDERLESS = NO, does not work correctly
    FULL SCREEN = NO

    DIRT4
    FULLSCREEN = YES
    BORDERLESS = NO

    DIRT RALLY 2.0
    WINDOWED = YES
    FULLSCREEN = YES (at first, until I ALT-TAB out and then back, then NO)
    WINDOWED BORDERLESS = NO

    F1 22
    WINDOWED = YES
    FULLSCREEN = NO (at first, until I ALT-TAB out and then back, then YES)
    WINDOWED (FULLSCREEN) = NO

    GRID LEGENDS
    FULLSCREEN = YES
    WINDOW FULLSCREEN = NO

    ACC
    FULLSCREEN ENABLED = YES
    FULLSCREEN DISABLED = YES
