Archisteamfarm: (Mono) ASF not able to remember my password

[guihkx]

I've changed the password from one of my bots and I decided to delete both .bin and .db files, so I could import the account again using the .maFile process. The problem is, the account setup works just fine, and right after the setup is completed, ASF is able to log-in on my account and farm my games. However, if I close ASF and start it again, no matter how many times I keep re-entering my password, it will "forget" my password the next time I run ASF. I don't know if this helps, but the password is 32 characters long, and it has characters like $, @, ', #. /, ] .

The log window:

I get the exact same output if I close ASF and run it again. I have to inform my password each time.

I added "Mono" to the title because on Windows it's working as expected, I'm having this issue only on my CentOS server running Mono:

Thanks for the fast reply. But all the other 8 bots are working fine (they don't have the same password length), isn't it odd?

[JustArchi]

Sometimes the issue also magically solves itself after some time, ask GabeN.

[guihkx]

:(

I'll keep trying then. Thanks

[JustArchi]

If you ask me, just ignore that quirk - if you have all required credentials, which is login, password and ASF 2FA, then ASF is able to handle that issue itself and doesn't require assistance - this problem will solve itself sooner or later anyway. You can try to solve it earlier, but due to nature of Steam fuckup it doesn't have to succeed, in any case, it's not ASF bug.

I would tell you more - right now I have the same issue with my main account... on steam client. Already for a few days steam keeps "forgetting" me, despite "Remember me" box is checked.

As I wrote:

I've already seen such issues not only with ASF, but with regular steam client as well (a need to input login + password on each run, regardless of "remember me" option).

Sorry, ask GabeN 😭

Sorry, ask GabeN

Just wanted to show that ASF has nothing to do with this, Volvo can't even make their own client to work properly.
