Just tried IM Extended for the first time this year and it doesn't work. I hope there is a fix forthcoming.

I use Idle Master Extended now. It solves all the problems associated with the old Idle Master and it also has Fast Mode which allows you to get the cards faster.

You should also delete Internet Explorer cookies.

Cleaning up your house might also help.

Your sarcasm is misplaced. The solution that worked for me involved deleting IE cookies. It was originally posted many pages ago but since people seem to be incapable of reading anything but the latest post I guess no one knows that.

Didn't help in my case.

I've found a solution that helped everyone I showed it to.

Delete Idle Master files.
Delete IdleMaster folder from appdata/local.
Download IdleMaster from their official site.
(I haven't tried running it as admin, but I've seen it help some guys here.)
When logging in, check the save credentials.

That should be it. :smile:

You should also delete Internet Explorer cookies.

The way I got it to work again -

Delete your Internet Explorer cookies.
Delete the Idlemaster appdata folder.
Sign in on Idlemaster, and check the "Remember me on this computer" box.
It'll stall and ask you to sign in again, go ahead and sign in, checking the box again.
It *should* ask for your 2FA or Steamguard code. Enter that.

The key for me was deleting the IE cookies and the appdata folder.

Has everyone tried this? This is what fixed the problem for me.

If you are having issues with IM and haven't tried this solution then I would recommend that you give it a go.

Thank you very much. That worked for me. :)

Me too. Can't idle my games without a program... Not an option. I heard ASF is complex but better than Idle Master. Although people say it auto-cancels trade offers while you idle. Not sure if true. But you can idle on multiple accounts at the same time.

For me IM is better. ASF is more than an idling program it can be a trading bot etc. For me the biggest reason I like IM more is the easines with which you start idling and the ability to idle multiple games as well as play games on steam while you idle.
ASF picks the idling algoritham by itself and you can't play games while it is running (since it cr8s a sesion not on your PC for farming cards, at least that is what steam told me when I wanted to play a game with ASF activated)
With all that said if you are looking for something that is up to date and wont bug out it is ASF and if you are looking for more than an idling program ASF again. But if you want to idle games with just a few clicks and ez control how and what you idle for me that is IM..

I want to use IM. It is simple and easy to use as you say. I don't want to have to use ASF but if IM isn't fixed then I guess I'll have to. I'm not aware of any other idling programs as I've only ever used IM.

i wont give up IM so fast :d

I don't want to but if it doesn't get fixed then I'll be forced to.

If it doesn't get fixed one way or another then I'll have to switch to ASF although I really don't want to.

Just opened IM after some weeks of non-use. Got the "Idling Complete" message, even though I have cards to idle.

Pressed "Sign Out", logged back in, voila: 34 card drops remaining, idling in progress :)

I did the same yesterday on my two PCs. On my WIn 10 machine it began to idle the games after logging out and then in again.

On my Win 7 machine it didn't work and I just got the "Badge page didn't load" error. Right now I'm farming on my Win 10 PC whilst the Win 7 one refuses to play ball.
