A new Steam client has been released and is being automatically downloaded.

General
  • Updated web control to CEF v58.0.3029.81
  • Improved launch error messaging in case the OS failed to create the game process

  • Steam Input
    • All Controllers types now can assign Guide Chord actions when opted out of further controller support. Similar to the Guide + Trigger for screenshot, additional actions can be bound or reassigned to Guide + Button via the Controller Settings. Additional options include mouse and keyboard support, changing volume or other media keys, turning off the controller (on supported hardware), and so forth
    • Fixed PS4 Controllers showing inappropriate art and text in the button diamond
    • Fixed XBox controllers potentially having a second phantom controller when not opted into Steam Configuration support

    • Fixed a case where native games requesting the configuration screen wouldn't work
    • Opting in to Steam Configuration Support for 3rd Party Controllers is now set for the user rather than the Steam Install. Users who have opted in to 3rd party Steam Controller Configurator Support will have to opt back in for their specific controllers

    • Fixed a case where closing the on-screen keyboard in Big Picture would not return to the proper controls
    • Manual registration in Big Picture is no longer required for new controllers. Personalization and changes to registration can still be made via the Controller Settings in Big Picture

    • Fix for a case where a cache for offline configurations could be corrupted
    • 3rd Party Controllers no longer have to be disconnected and reconnected when opting into/out of Steam Configuration support. Games can still be individually opted out of support via the game's controller settings panel
