How to fix it:

1. Launch the game directly from your Steam library. The activation window should open automatically. In the background, Steam will provide the code and link the game to your Ubisoft account. Often, the problem occurs if the game isn't launched through Steam, or if Ubisoft Connect fails to recognize the Steam launch.

2. If the window doesn't appear or gives an error:
-Make sure you have Ubisoft Connect installed and updated.
-Restart both Steam and Ubisoft Connect.
-Check that your Steam and Ubisoft Connect accounts are officially linked on the Ubisoft website.

The main cause is a failure in the connection between the Steam and Ubisoft Connect clients.

Still wont work. I did everything you said but i still wont get an code and the game still wont start. Updated both steam and ubisoft and checked if my steam is linked on the website as well. But i cant start the game

Dunno what to tell you... now I can just quote AI for you problem ( I asked for solution ), try this if you still wanna try:

The standard linking process failed. Here is a concise step-by-step solution for him:

Fully uninstall Ubisoft Connect using its official uninstaller.

Restart your PC.

Reinstall Ubisoft Connect fresh from the official Ubisoft website.

Launch Steep directly from Steam. This should trigger the account linking and activation process correctly.

This "nuclear" method resolves deep-seated conflicts in the Connect-Steam handshake that simple restarts cannot fix.

idk man wont work for me. But aye still much thanks for trying to help. Have a great day/night

i have the same problem

Hello everyone

I'm sorry to hear it you cannot activate Steep.

Steep like most Ubisoft games purchased on Steam does not require an activation key.

A digital licence is pushed to your Ubisoft account when you launch the game in Steam for the first time, and link it to the Ubisoft account.

Once activated this way, the game cannot be activated on another Ubisoft account.

If you are asked for an activation key, it means Ubisoft Connect cannot process the Steam licence correctly.

If this happens, start with clearing Ubisoft Connect Cache[www.ubisoft.com].

Run Ubisoft Connect and Steam launchers with administrator rights[www.ubisoft.com].

Further steps involve installing or re-installing Ubisoft Connect PC. [www.ubisoft.com]

Make sure Ubisoft Connect is installed in the default installation path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\

Try closing Ubisoft Connect completely (not just minimise it to the system tray) and then launch the game from Steam, for accounts to link correctly.

Let us know if you have any further questions.
