Steam – Getting “Unable to load Steam.dll” when trying to load Peggle Extreme

pegglesteam

I installed a game called Peggle Extreme, a free game in the Steam web store, but when I tried to play it, it gave me an error:

Unable to load Steam.dll

  • I do not have this issue with any other games.
  • I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game, but to no avail; I still get the same error.
  • As far as I am aware, it has fully downloaded and ready to launch.

I was wondering if this is a widespread issue, or if it is just me.

I have attached a screenshot:

It seems copying the Steam.dll into the game folder might help. Source: Steam forum.

Edit: In the comments, someone mentioned you should reinstalling Steam. If you choose to try that, don't forget Steam lets you back up your games. (In the menu, select Steam > Backup and Restore Games)
If you do that, you won't have to re-download all the games again.
