Author Topic: I was at my friends house and forgot to close my steam. (question)  (Read 707 times)

As the title says I was at my friends house and when I left I didn't close my steam, I was using the in browser steam client as well. I logged back into steam at home but I don't know if it automatically closed my chat and everything at his house.

Does anyone know if it would have? If it was the steam client-client than I would know it had but I don't know how it acts with the browser.

Change your password.

Just for a little while. I know, there are probably many naughty things on it.

If you log onto it at another location while it is logged on somewhere else, the session will be stopped on the other computer. They will need a password again in order to log back in.

I can attest to this, it even happens if the two computers are sharing a network.

I was on the in-browser one at his house, I was asking if it does the same with browser as it does the client.

ask him about it?
I'm not able to contact him right now.

I'm not so certain about that. The only way I know it can happen if it is in a Steam client.

I don't think it'd automatically log you out, like someone else suggested change your password.

Alright, I know it auto-logged out. I managed to test.
To test yourself incase you ever have this issue:
1. Log into steam in-browser (with client also logged in)
2. Go to friends -> some random profile -> send message
3. The globe should show beside your name
4. Close the chat on the browser
5. After about a minute change your status on the client to away then online. The globe should be gone.
