How to block Steam completely? - peterae - 04-21-2025

Hello,
I'm purchased FocusMe, but cannot block Steam completely.  There is a delay in opening Steam, but it still launches successfully. Additionally, I set up a plan to block Dota 2, a Steam game, but it continues to run. FocusMe minimizes my screen to the desktop, but the game remains active.

Hello Peterae! FocusMe already has a pre-set plan for Steam games you can use right away. ?

If a specific game isn’t being blocked, you can also manually add the application and process name to make sure it gets caught.

To find the correct info, check out the FocusMe Helper tool — super handy for this!

Hope that helps!
