Ok so here is my delima. I want to play a steam game(Terraria), that I legitimately bought, without having to run or start Steam at all. I have bought, and installed Steam and the game on a flash drive while I was on a computer that I have Admin permissions on. I then want to take the flash drive and plug it into a laptop and play; the only problem being I do not have Admin permissions.

When I try to run the exe file it returns with "You do not have elevated permissions". If I already have the full game, why does it then need to connect to steam?

Is there any way for me to just run the game files without Steam?

So I would assume Terraria to be a "Steam Game"? And what about running in offline mode? Do you think I could persay start Steam on a comp that Im an admin on, put steam into offline mode, then run the game on the laptop and it might bypass trying to connect to Steam?

So it gives me this message...

"Steam is not properly installed on this computer. Steam service needs to run with elevated privelages to repair system settings" and it has an "ok" button. When I click that it prompts me to put in the Admin password.

And when I try to run Terraria through the exe file it starts loading then just stops and does nothing. No message, no dialogue box, nothing.
