Resolved Steam icon turns generic today


what mean when application icon turns generic , fails launch when clicked on??

how can fix short of reinstalling steam? i've restarted mac check see if fixed it, no.
 

so, found others had reported same issue on gearbox forums in late october, , seems problem stems latest steam update.

here's fix me might work you:


go finder, , find steam app in mac's applications folder.

there, select it, duplicate it, , delete original. after duplicate generic app icon, may display circle diagonal line through it. seems normal, , didn't prevent me doing wanted do.

when delete old app, you'll see pop warning you're delete steam apps , want them?

click open folder. will, close window. in applications folder, once generic steam app should have blue round know. launch , enjoy.

hope helps.
