Any clue? (besides to try later :-) )

Hmm, a very strange news post on steam as well.

About 15 years old!

I wonder if there has been a hack?

I did notice my Quake files updated recently, on the day that news launched. I don't think it's a hack. I assume you've closed and rebooted steam already? Have you deleted the .blob file?

I had issues with steam yesterday and deleted my blob file and ever since I've been unable to start steam due to the same error :sideways:
