This goes on for half a year no. Is this to be fixed soon? I'm up to chaging to launchbad. This ist a joke.

Dear GOG Galaxy devs

Don't offer the possibility of syncing Steam, if it almost never works in the last 6 to 12months.... :/

Not working for me either and has not been working for months. Tried multiple things I've found on Reddit to no avail. I come back every few months to see if it has changed but obviously, it has not. Now I use Playnite and will continue to do so until this is fixed. It's a shame because I would rather use the GOG launcher. It's prettier.

Guys, I did a search here, and I found a news a game site in Brazil, I will post the news summarized below.

Unfortunately, the company itself closed this service, the reason being "a few years of service inactivity". Unfortunately there's nothing to be done, too bad I really enjoyed using it.

News on 01/13/2023:

GOG has announced the closure of its service called GOG Connect (12/01/2023), which allowed users to import games from Steam to the GOG platform. The decision to shut down the service was made due to its long period of inactivity and technical obsolescence.

GOG Connect, launched in 2016, aimed to integrate users' Steam profiles with GOG, offering them DRM-free versions of games they had purchased on Steam. However, the service had limitations due to contractual restrictions. Only a small number of games were available for import, and many had strict time limitations. Additionally, the tool mainly supported games from CD Projekt RED, with limited compatibility even in that case.

While GOG users had anticipated the discontinuation of GOG Connect, it was officially confirmed when the game importation page was taken down. CD Projekt stated that the service had been inactive for a long time, leading them to make the decision to shut it down.

Although GOG Connect has ended, GOG still offers integration of game libraries through its PC software, GOG Galaxy. Users can link their Steam and Epic Games Store accounts to create a unified library, eliminating the need to open multiple programs to access their installed games. However, games not purchased through GOG will still require the respective DRM and launcher.

This decision reflects GOG's current focus on re-releasing classic games that are not available elsewhere, as the platform initially aimed to compete with Valve's store but faced limitations in doing so.

I report it on General Discussion,because looks like who all claims are ignored here u.u

This is some other thing. This is not about the GOG Galaxy application linking with Steam, it was about GOG granting you copy (i.e. add to your GOG account, as if you entered a Redeem Code) of some titles that you bought on Steam.

Mine hasn't been working with steam for months. I used to use Galaxy all the time but I don't bother now. Thank's for mentioning Playnite, I've now switched to that instead.

I downloaded the "windows_with_installer.zip" and ran the .bat file. This finally fixed the issue for me! Thank you very much!

Can confirm this worked for me. Just ran the .bat file and opened Galaxy and it worked.

Can also confirm that this worked for me. Woot! Thanks for the heads up!

Plugin used and is 100% working, thank you kind sir.

There’s a trojan

That's hardly possible. :) it's Python code, public and readable, not a random .exe. Your comment is unfunny anyway.

I would like to install it but i am very untechnical so i have no clue what to do. Is winows with installer one that installs itself while the other one needs to be done manually? and what file does one run? and where should they go? and should the galaxy program be running in the bg? and how will it show up in the launcher later? and does it update itself? and why can this one not be the one found from the launcher?

Sorry for my questions. I have a feeling they might be quite dumb but i have no clue
