Hypothetically, if someone were to download a Steam game from FG what's the best operating procedure to avoid being Steam banned? For example, I understand that steam_api.dll will often be quarantined by MS Defender because the game uses a modded version of that file. Once it's restored what steps would you take to proceed? Log out of steam? Disable internet access? Kill all Steam processes?

I know. You're right. It's just an old habit.
