I tried to open steam and then I get a black screen with this Error.

Error Reference: Shared SteamUI_8971085_cf75bb5984e17f97
Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'GetPlayer')

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Launch Steam
  2. When steamwebhelper crash select restart steamwebhelper
  3. Receive Black Screen

I would really like to get this fixed so that I can play my games again.

Solved.

I just had to run steam -console -clearbeta a few times and it cleared up on it own.
