You may be getting this error when trying to start a steam:// URL because of a faulty registry. This problem may occur if you transfer Steam to a different drive/directory.

To repair it, you should change the value of HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\steam\Shell\Open\Command so it matches to that of the new drive/directory.

Example

If your old steam directory was: C:\games\Steam Then the value of the key should look like this:

C:\games\Steam\steam.exe" "%1"

And now you've moved it to D:\games\Steam The new key value should look like this:

D:\games\Steam\steam.exe" "%1"
