Vortex does not register Steam is open

[Soro135]

Hello,

Vortex Version 1.12.6

Game: Marvels Spider-Man Remastered from Steam

Mod count: 8 mods currently installed

OS: Windows 10/64 bit/16 gig ram

When attempting to launch Marvels Spider Man Remastered an error message pops up that states "This game cannot open while Steam is not running" - the issue is that steam is open, all the pathways are set correctly, and the game launches fine through steam but mods are not working properly. I'm stuck on next steps here, help appreciated

You can start the game manually, but this error implies that something is broken with your Steam install. The message isn't from Vortex, it's from the game by the looks of it.
