you may be running into a bug with the game plugins not downloading correctly. it will be fixed in the next release but in the meantime there is a workaround:
hmm that’s weird. usually the paths should be mostly the same unless you changed the library path in steam.
so for example, if steam is in C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam the game path should also be C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam.
but, if you changed your steam library in steam to another partition then it’d be like D:/SteamLibrary for the game path.
also make sure you’re not running like FaceIT anti-cheat as that locks the cs executable and prevents the app from starting.
