The Steam video game platform was one of the first to reach the market to stay, a platform that allows us to buy practically any title in digital format. At the same time, it is the launcher of all the games that we buy on this platform. But it has an obstacle: its operation is very slow.

The operation of Steam is very slow, both to open and navigate the application For what is this? A that includes a kind of web browser that gives us access to all the games available on the platform. But of course, unless we want to find or buy a new title, what good is it?

None. If you use this platform many times to play the titles you have purchased, the best thing to do is disable the included browser and that you only have access to the library to be able to quickly open your games.

From the application itself, within the configuration alternatives we cannot configure the application so that only the window with the titles that we have purchased is displayed. When we open Steam, the application creates the Steam Client WebHelper procedure, a procedure that enables us to navigate the store.

As I say in computing, for every problem there is a solution and in the case of Steam with the library there is also a solution. If you need that every time you run Steam, only the window of the titles you have purchased opens, like the image above, we must Create a desktop shortcut (as an example) with the following command:
"C: Program Files (x86) Steam steam.exe" -no-browser + open steam: // open / minigameslist »

When creating the shortcut, we must include quotes, since otherwise the route that we have established will not be recognized. If we want to re-enter Steam with access to the library, we only have to enter through the access we have in the start menu.
