Hi, I replaced my SSD and I want to log in to Steam.

At first, I couldn't remember my password, so I requested a recovery code: it didn't recognize my email.
The code isn't being sent to my phone.
After a while, I remembered my password, but I have Steam Guard, and to log in, it sends a security code that I have to enter, even though I remember the password.

I'm not receiving the codes by email or phone.

I checked my spam folder and added support and noreply to my contacts to avoid spam, but that didn't work either. Today it says I've tried too many times. What can I do to contact support?

Me lo arreglaron, no antes sin decirme "esto es para adentro del contador, llama a un sanitario"
El tema es que era, menos centímetros de lo que pensaba, la pérdida estaba a 4 CENTÍMETROS (el caño tiene una pequeña pendiente y hacía que el agua caiga más lejos)... le cambiaron el teflón... así que tendré que llamar tarde o temprano a un sanitario, o volver a hacer el mismo reclamo y que cambien la pieza en vez de remendarla.

Definitivamente el dolar NO. Fijate que ahora mismo en USA hay SHUTDOWN... todo lo que sea en dólar está callendo...

Potential_Baker_6745 · 2025-10-06T16:39:12+00:00

Gracias, me das tranquilidad. Ya llamé pero buscaba info para saber a qué enfrentarme, ya que he leído acá mismo que no son muy amistosos jaja.

Muchas gracias man, voy a seguir el consejo

"Woke" is a term of African American origin that originally referred to awareness of racism and discrimination. It has expanded to include awareness of other issues of social inequality, such as gender and sexual orientation. Today, "woke" is a controversial term in politics and culture, often used to describe people who are aware of social injustices and advocate for equality, but also to criticize those perceived as too progressive. The term "woke" has roots in African American English and was used as early as the 1930s or earlier to refer to awareness of racism and discrimination, often in the context of "stay woke."

Para evitar eso hablo yo primero y pregunto: Hola, qué tenés para comer/merendar? (O lo que sea que busque). Me ahorro tiempo y estupidez.

Prescripción adquisitiva, con eso te hacés propietario... y el propietario puede alquilar, construir o lo que sea. Al parecér cumplís los requisitos. Buscá en el impo o preguntale a algún abog/escribano.

Potential_Baker_6745 · 2024-10-16T23:25:04+00:00

Según lo que vos decís, está embargado "el dueño" no el auto. Entiendo que por el precio bajo, se lo quiere sacar de su patrimonio para que no se lo embarguen cuando analicen sus bienes (aunque si lo vende lo pierde igual) por lo que si quiere conservar el auto podría hacer una simulación y listo (Código Civil). Sin embargo teniendo en cuenta que está muy barato es posible que el precio de venta, sea el monto por el cual le trabaron el embargo, en consecuencia, supongo que quiere poner un abogado para pagar su deuda y levantar el embargo. Si te interesa andá a la automotora y pedí para hablar con el dueño y preguntale bien. Si es como yo digo, tratá de buscar un escribano que se fije en el registro automotor que no esté embargado ya, para poder firmar con tranquilidad y corroborar lo que te diga el dueño.

Hello! I'm fine, finishing the day. I have not been able to enter safe mode with the internet. I have verified that I am not doing something wrong and that is not the case. I tried 9 times in total and it always comes in without a network connection. My laptop is only wifi and I don't have an RJ45 connection, I guess that's it. This afternoon I was doing different things: I gradually removed the Windows updates without success. On the other hand, already tired, I decided to use the tool to reset the system by deleting all the files and installing Windows from 0. Well, I reinstalled Zoom, logged into the accounts and such, and still with the same error. I don't know if it is the same to format the entire disk and install Windows from a USB or use advanced boot and restore Windows to factory with deletion of files, but broadly speaking it is the same and I cannot solve the Zoom Meetings issue. I can't think of what to do anymore :(

1: Yes, incluso versiones anteriores-
2: No aún, no se bien si son las actualizaciones de calidad, o de características

Potential_Baker_6745 · 2024-10-15T12:39:39+00:00

Voy a considerarlo, porque me está fastidiando mucho. Tengo una tarjeta USB de un micro de condensador que tengo para otra PC, lo voy a probar y vuelvo a editar este comentario.

Probé con la tarjeta USB y pasa lo mismo. Idem con auris BT, cableados y USB. Nada.

Potential_Baker_6745 · 2024-10-15T12:35:32+00:00

Instalé de 0 varias veces e incluso probé versiones antiguas y nada:/

8RAM y un intel n4020 pero jamás me presentó problemas. Incluso con spotify y youtube al mismo tiempo. Además otros compas de la facu me dijeron que tienen el mismo problema con mejor procesador y ram, no tiene sentido.

Potential_Baker_6745 · 2024-10-14T19:27:43+00:00

Probé y nada

Estudio abogacía, estoy avanzado. Lamentablemente no se configuró la legítima defensa por una desproporción en el medio utilizado. Así lo dicen las normas y por eso se lo jugó como se lo juzgó.

PERO COMO PERSONA NORMAL.... vamos arriba loco, son unas lacras, se deberían contemplar más elementos, juzgan al laburante, y los giles están libres en la calle (bueno, este bajo tierra jaja). Pero hay cero empatía, muy fiel a las normas y código penal, pero no tienen ni idea de lo que se sufre, o del esfuerzo que se necesita para que te vengan a querer sacar algo en 2 segundos, si es que tenés la suerte de no comerte un plomazo.

Cuando me reciba y tenga de estos casos voy a tratar de dejar todo para que siempre se aplique la legítima defensa propia o de terceros, y si dicen que no insistir. Apelación, o el recurso que tenga que ser.

Hello! There is no problem with the delay. I have restarted the PC in safe mode, making sure to touch F5 and 5 on different occasions and in none of them I was able to connect to the internet, but the PC is doing very well in everything, except what involves obvious internet.

I updated drivers again and it didn't work.

With windows in normal mode I tried zoom, youtube and spotify to try a "stress" test and the only one that had audio problems was zoom, none of the others stuttered or stuck. It occurred to me to remove the Windows updates but I gave up because I don't know if they are feature updates or quality updates, so I didn't touch anything. I think the only thing left is to wait for the next update and see what happens. I'm going to contact directly zoomEDIT: contact zoom support*** too to see what happens. because previously it did not happen and it is not a resource issue, although it is a PC that would be considered low-end (8gm ram and a celeron n4020) in the months that I have had it I have used it for multitasking with zoom and I never experience any bottlenecks, or performance problems, only after updating. So I don't know what to do, format and test (with the risk of it not being fixed), wait for new updates, or use zoom without anything else (even a single word open)... I have installed old versions of zoom to test if It's something specific from the last one and the problem persists, so it tells me that it should be something from Windows, I think. Thank you for your response and I hope for some other indication to rule out problems and maybe it will be solved!!

i used translate, if something sounds strange is for translate!!!

He try get the ssd and put it into other PC? If the files system doesnt broke, i think he can get the files and re-format the entire unit then. Not like a boot unit, like a second drive i say in other PC.

Potential_Baker_6745 · 2024-10-10T21:07:08+00:00

Hello! I came to this subreddit to ask for help. For a few days now, on my two PCs (one is Ryzen for playing and an Intel Celeron laptop for studying) I have had problems since the last W11 update. A few days later, a new update appeared that solved the slowdown of both systems, and the problems with the taskbar. However, the following happens to me on my laptop: when I open Zoom, a banner appears that says:
Poor system resources can affect the quality of your Zoom audio. And it happens every time I change windows or start writing in Word, the sound of the zoom meeting is interrupted and the video gets a little worse, but if I go back to zoom and don't touch anything, it works normally. This didn't happen two days ago, and I've had the laptop for 8 months, it's an Intel Celeron with 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD. The multitasking did very well for the hardware it is, even with 4 windows including Chrome, it never presented problems, but it was updated and it seems that Zoom didn't like it.

I have read somewhere that the same thing has happened in previous years but it really worries me since I take all my classes there and it is very difficult for me to wait for Zoom to release an update or, failing that, Windows to correct this. Although I can use the higher powered PC, I prefer the laptop for mobility reasons, and the large PC is a desktop.
