Hey everyone! I just finished a fresh Windows install on my PC and started installing games again through Steam. It seems the games crash when I load a shortcut but work fine when I open them directly from Steam. I made shortcuts in the main installation folder, but they all crash. Also, using Steam to create a desktop shortcut for the games gives the same icon and loads the same game. Any advice or help would be really appreciated! Thanks.

Steam acts as a DRM, making it impossible to launch those games.
