By Аntiхrist
We return the old steam interface.
When -vgui no longer works, there are few easy ways to bring back the old invertface. This one is one of them.

All there is to do
  • Close completely Steam

  • Create Shortcut for Steam.exe

  • Right Click on Shortcut

  • Properties

  • Target (It should have path to original .exe file)
    I have "C:\Steam\steam.exe" or Default "C:\Program Files\Steam"

  • Paste This in after Path from previous step (It will download old version of Steam)
    -forcesteamupdate -forcepackagedownload -overridepackageurl http://web.archive.org/web/20230531113527if_/media.steampowered.com/client -exitsteam

  • Open Steam via Shortcut

  • Wait until it finish update and will close

  • Delete previously pasted code (remember to not delete path to .exe file)

  • Open Steam Main Folder
    Default "C:\Program Files\Steam" or Your Location

  • In this folder create File "steam.cfg" (.cfg Needs To Be File Extension, not steam.cfg.txt)

  • Paste This in our "steam.cfg" File (It will prevent form Automatic Updates)
    BootStrapperInhibitAll=Enable
    BootStrapperForceSelfUpdate=False
End

I tried this and it seems to be crashing on "Updating User Configuration".

i like the new interface. it looks nice.

my problem with it is how the back/forward arrows work (the ones beside the store tab) i be viewing addons and i wanna go back to look at more but it takes me back to the previous tab (like from workshop to library)

it's my only issue but if it gets fixed i'll keep it

as somebody who is allergic to change, this guide has really helped me to rid myself of that disgusting, new interface. Thank you.
