I'm guessing this is the article linked:

Noob programmer obviously added 'steam idlers' to the list which is obviously pointless as idle master can't be used to cheat.

Solution is simple, either blacklist your vac game in idle-master or don't use idle-master whilst playing vac game.

so if I play CSGO, i gotta blacklist only CSGO in Idle Master, or I gotta blacklist every single game with VAC secured system? Please help! thank you!

All of them. That said if you simply reboot steam after using (and turning off) Idlemaster, THEN start playing a VAC-secured game, you will suffer no problems (resetting steam removes the "flag" that idlemaster seems to trip which makes VAC angry)

Read pinned threads before becoming the 50th person this week to post about the same thing we've answered a hundred times

See "Idling complete". Idling is just what appears in other languages because the non-english versions weren't finished when development ended.

As my fellow mod said, this is addressed in depth in the pinned threads. Please review them for answers to this so thorough that you'd need several threads to ask all the questions.

I'm very confused as to how Idlemaster is involved. The program has no ability to influence this issue.

Read the bloody pinned messages we pin them for a reason

There's been some reports that games under 3 hours aren't dropping cards. In those cases, try idling one of them until the 3 hour mark, then change game on idlemaster (via the arrow) or close down the program (same end result either way). If steam proceeds to give you a card then you're one of the unfortunate people who are stuck with the 3 hour problem and you'll just have to use a different program to get more efficient drops.

Read this thread which is literally the top one in the forum and you would have had to ignore to find the start new discussion button

Close Idle Master

Go to:
C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\IdleMaster
There's a folder like 'IdleMaster.exe_Url_3u0cjrx5her2jkf5301qgonqcd1bjdkh'
Delete it.

Start Idle Master.

Note: "AppData" is a system/hidden folder, either copy and paste the folder location or change the explorer setting so that is shows hidden folders (google it).


This should resolve your issue. I hope this is not lost in translation.
