New in WinAuth 3.5.1 (Jun 13, 2016)

  • Issue#366: fix spamming notifications when Steam is down. Hide confim/cancel all buttons on login.

New in WinAuth 3.5.0 (May 25, 2016)

  • Steam Trading Confirmations:
  • If you registered SteamGuard with WinAuth in version 3.3, you will need to remove it from your Steam account and add it again. This is because WinAuth only kept the SteamGuard information relevant to generating the authenticator codes, but confirmations requires re-registering.
  • You can go into the normal Steam client, choose Account Details, then click “Manage Steam Guard”. Click the Remove Authenticator button and enter the recovery code (aka revocation code – found from right-clicking in WinAuth).
  • When right-clicking , click the menu item called “Confirmations…”. This will login with your username/password and show your current trade confirmations. You can click to view more details, and use the buttons to accept or reject them.
  • If you choose “remember me”, WinAuth will keep you logged in (does not keep your username/password) so you can quickly go into Confirmations again.
