    same here, just started having this issue, Cache clearing didn't work. But, I suppose it up and decided it didnt have permission so, restoring defaults seems to be the way to go. Still working in 2024 on Windows 11, just click "show more" the on the second Allow Access pop up then select both public and private networks.

    I fixed it! I had to do a "soft reinstall" of Steam. Here's what I did: 1. Exit Steam. (Steam was also crashing every time I tried to exit) 2. Open the Steam directory folder in Program Files. 3. Delete everything EXCEPT for the folders "steam" and "steamapps" and the file "steam.exe". 4. Do a complete reboot of the computer. 5. Start Steam by using "steam.exe" in the directory folder. I had to reset all my settings, but it worked!
