OK so , when i try to open a game on steam , it either says ''couldnt start app , app already running'' or it shows the ''preparing to launchh app '' screen and then nothing pops up . I need help ASAP because i spent alot of money in steam games and ive been trying to fix this issue for months , but nothing seems to work

You can try to check the Task manager if this game already opened. Sometimes games cannot start normally because of bug or something else. So, if you see the process (game) running - just close it in Task Manager and start again, normally. Be sure to check the Background processes too, as the game process might hide there.
