However, some players have reported issues withSteam’s achievement featurenot popping up. This is obviously the case if you’re in offline mode, which you can quickly switch.
Permission issues, conflicting software and outdated OS can also cause this. Follow the steps below to fix it.
How can I fix Steam achievements not showing up in games?
Before trying advanced fixes, just restart your PC. Also, close unused apps and make sure your Internet is up and running. If you tried these and still have no luck, go ahead and try the more complex options below:
1. Select the Go Online option
As we’ve mentioned above, the Steam achievements won’t show up if Steam is working in Offline mode so, changing this setting will fix the situation.
2. Make sure that Steam Overlay is enabled
This resolution doesn’t fix Steam achievements not unlocking. It will, however, likely fix Steam achievements not showing up in games when the achievement feature is working.
3. Configure Steam games to run with admin rights
4. Remove installed mods for games
An alternative method is to find the mod’s folder for the game in File Explorer. Then you can manually delete all the mods from a game’s modding folder.
5. Clean-boot Windows 10
To restore the original boot settings, simply select theLoad startup itemsandEnable alloptions inSystem Configuration.
For further potential resolutions, submit a support ticket to Steam. You can submit a help request viaSteam’s support page. First, however, you’ll need to sign in to Steam to do so.
Alternatively, you can add a post about the issue to Steam’s support forum. Log in to the forum with yourSteam account. Then click theStart a New Discussionbutton on theHelp and Tips sectionof that forum. The Steam community might then be able to suggest some potential fixes.
However, give the resolutions above a try before contacting Steam support. Those potential fixes aren’t necessarily guaranteed to work for everyone, but are still worth a try, nonetheless.
