Random Steam Updates?

Steam downloaded an update twice today. Today I was playing the latest version, 0.5.3.2. Then there was a weird 0 byte update. After that Steam downloaded a 110 MB update, which is truly weird because it did not show up on the Steam News or the Dev blog. What is going on??

 

Steam is bugging out.

 

Well then what is it downloading?

 

My steam shows updates needed for almost all my games. IDK but its wierd

 

Yup, same exact thing here. Nearly 30% of my installed games either updated or are slated for an update. Not counting the 0 byte updates.

 

Same here. Queued them up and they finished immediately with 0 bytes of 0 bytes.

 

Same thing here.

 

Same here, it updated all my steam games for some reason (its a bug, looks like it).

 

It could also be that Steam has been hacked by someone. We will never know what happend. Or it's a glitch.

 

it's a bug fix update thats not listed i had it happen to me like 3 days ago.

This will answer your questions.... https://www.reddit.com/r/Steam/comments/4eohr1/huge_0_byte_error_on_steam_post_your_experiences/

 

No its not, its more than likely redist fixes than anything

 

same here with besiege

 

i think it is a steam problem

 

Wierd. I dont have updates for any of my games while a have a big list :/. But there may be changes for steam which forced the games to be updated or something.

 

Well then, I don't believe it belongs on these forums.

 

i am experiencing it too. god forbid i sit down to play any of my games without a 3 minute update. im sure they will have it sorted soon.

 

Lol, way more than 3 minutes when it does happen over heere.

 

im relatively blessed. in nyc i pull about 1.8 MB a second so its more like a 1 minute update. some of you will have it much worse so im an asshat for complaining.
