Hi. The stream update does not appear to flow for now. It starts the download process, but never goes beyond the validation stage and after a few minutes of no progress, the steam app crashes

How the Steam client decides to screw up your day is outside our control. Sorry.

Ring up Valve and tell them they need to do better.

Strange. I am unable to make any progress at all, even after a did a clean reinstall of the public (non-beta) version and then opting in for betas.

I have the same issue.. Steam seems to have somekind of problem and basically ends up without working afterwards. Pretty sure that it is the Steam client that decides to overload itself. So I am just going to skip this update.
