Any idea how to deal with this vconfig error?

I'm having the exact same problem. A common bug, perhaps? --Andreasen 06:05, 26 Oct 2006 (PDT)

I ran into this problem too. Unfortunately, my attempt at a fix only gave me even less encouraging results: The "steam.dll" mentioned is located (typically) in your "C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam" folder. I created a shortcut to VConfig and set the working directory to the one that steam.dll resides in (so Windows can find the dll when the app attempts to load it). This made the error go away, but nothing at all happens now. No GUI, no messages in console, nothing.

I then added the "C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam" directory to my PATH system variable (so Windows will always look for dlls in that dir when none are immediately found) and ran the executable directly, through Explorer and the console. Still nothing. Methinks support for this tool no longer exists?
